West Yorkshire Playhouse, Leeds, will hold the auditions from 11am and is looking for four young people, male or female and aged between 16 and 25, to take on the roles of the dogs, acting as bodyguards to the tyrannical pig Napoleon.

Peter Hall's musical version of George Orwell's classic play will feature masks, music and movement and aims to bring alive the memorable tale of the Bolshevik revolutionary pigs who overthrow their human keepers in the belief that they can create a society where equality is all.

The successful candidates will get the chance to work with acclaimed director Nikolai Foster and a cast of 12 talented actor/musicians.

For those who would prefer to sing with the "oldest choir standing", there is an opportunity in Calderdale. Halifax Choral Society has a record of performance which dates back to 1817. The record is unbroken and this may well make it the oldest amateur choral society in the world.

If you followed and enjoyed Last Choir Standing why not have a go yourself and join the society on Monday at the United Reformed Church on Harrison Road, Halifax (7.15pm).
