Michelle Sweeney, director of creative development at OnFife, said: “The joy and magic of pantomime has been sorely missed these last two years and we’re delighted to be bringing it back.
"We would encourage any youngsters who would like to experience the thrill of theatre and live performance, regardless of their experience, to come along to the audition.”
Children will be taught a dance routine on the day of the audition that they will have to perform as a group back to the audition panel.

Application forms do not need to be submitted in advance, but where possible, applicants are urged to bring completed forms with them to save time on audition day.
