ALADDIN AUDITION WORKSHOP DAY- SATURDAY 29th JANUARY – 10-4pm. Bring a packed lunch , snack and a drink
At CLOKS we run our auditions a little differently, everyone is encouraged to come along for the whole day regardless of whether they want a main part or chorus part. The audition day is a chance for us all to reconnect with each other and find out about the show (It’s very different from the Disney film)
Everyone who is a member of CLOKS is guaranteed a place in the show! There are only a few main parts, so to give everyone a chance and to cover us in the event of illness (Especially in these still uncertain times) we will be double casting some parts. If you are double cast in a main part you will also be in the chorus for the other performances. If you aren’t lucky enough to be cast in a main role the you will have plenty to do in the chorus.
It is usually a tradition to allocate the main parts (in the main show) to our older members although sometimes a younger person is needed in a particular role.
MORNING SESSION- We will be playing warm up games, team building games, doing script auditions as a group
LUNCH
AFTERNOON- We will be learning the audition song ‘A Whole New World’ as a group then anyone wishing to audition for a singing part will need to stay and sing a part of the song (not the whole song) Anyone not wanting to audition for a solo singing part is very welcome to stay and offer support.
Aladdin, Babkak, Omar, Kassim, Razoul
smaller roles include : Guards, Beggars ,Apple seller, attendants, Isir, Manal and Rajah (Jasmines’s attendants) some of these parts have a few lines others are non speaking. Please use any of the above pieces if you want to go for any of these.

A WHOLE NEW WORLD (LYRICS)
I can show you the world. Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, princess, now when did you last let your heart decide?
I can open your eyes, Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways and under, on a magic carpet ride
A whole new world! A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us, “No”, or where to go, or say we’re only dreaming
A whole new world, A dazzling place I never knew
But when I’m way up here, It’s crystal clear
That now I’m in a whole new world with you (Now I’m in a whole new world with you)
Unbelievable sights, Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling through an endless diamond sky
A whole new world (don’t you dare close your eyes)
A hundred thousand things to see (hold your breath, it gets better)
I’m like a shooting star, I’ve come so far, I can’t go back to where I used to be
A whole new world, With new horizons to pursue
I’ll chase them anywhere, There’s time to spare
Let me share this whole new world with you
A whole new world (a whole new world)
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us, “No”, Or where to go
Or say we’re only dreaming
A whole new world (every turn, a surprise)
With new horizons to pursue (every moment, red-letter)
I’ll chase them anywhere, there’s time to spare
And then we’re home (there’s time to spare)
Let me share this whole new world with you
A whole new world (a whole new world)
That’s where we’ll be (that’s where we’ll be)
A thrilling chase (a wondrous place)
For you and me
