Plymouth Theatre Royal is looking for 32 talented children to play the King of Siam's children in the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical The King & I.

The show – which includes songs Getting To Know You, We Whistle A Happy Tune and Hello, Young Lovers – will be at the theatre in April.

Auditions take place at TR2, the Theatre Royal's Production and Education Centre in Cattedown, Plymouth on Thursday, February 16.

Registration for the auditions for boys and girls aged five to nine years begins at 9.30am with auditions throughout the morning. Registration for children between ten and 14 is at 12.30pm with auditions throughout the afternoon.

Children must have dark hair, be able to sing and dance and be available for performances from April 9-14.

They must be accompanied to the auditions by an adult who must stay with them. Bring plenty of food and drink as there are limited refreshment facilities at TR2.
