Asians from Bradford have the chance to take part in a ground-breaking Andrew Lloyd Webber show.

His company is on the look-out for actors and dancers of all ages to be in the cast of a new mystery Bollywood stage musical.

The Really Useful Theatre Company will hold auditions at the Alhambra Theatre tomorrow.

Open auditions were also held at the Sadlers Wells Theatre in London yesterday and today.

But Bradford is the only location outside the capital which has been chosen for the search for talent.

If the project is successfully turned into a major show, it will be first of its kind to hit the West End.

The Really Useful Theatre Company's spokesman, Philip Lee, said: "Andrew is not writing any of the music but it's something he has real enthusiasm for and he is working on it as a producer. It's very much driven by him."

Those selected will form part of a workshop production which will be held in London in January and February next year and will not be seen by the public.

Further selections from the workshop will then be made to form the cast of the final production.

Mr Lee could not say anything more about who was writing the musical but added the show would be based on a brand new story.

Registration for the open auditions tomorrow will be at 10am. The company is looking for actors, actresses and dancers aged 18 and upwards.

Actors and actresses should have acting and singing skills. They must be prepared to sing two songs with piano or to backing track to show their vocal range. Traditional Indian songs may also be required.

Dancers should have contemporary dance skills and traditional dance training would also be useful.

They should wear appropriate dance gear and trainers and be prepared to learn a contemporary dance routine.

A photograph and CV is also required and people wishing to audition should be prepared to stay all day.
