After two rounds of highly competitive auditions, Toby, Fifth Form in New House, has been offered a role in the National Youth Music Theatre’s production of The Dreaming, a musical written by Howard Goodall and based on A Midsummer Night’s Dream.
The production is part of the International Youth Arts Festival at the Rose Theatre, Kingston during the week of July 16-21. According to the director of the NYMT , the standard of auditions this year was remarkably high and gaining a place with the company represents a remarkable achievement.
Toby has also won a part in a West End show with Little Britain comedian Matt Lucas. He will be performing in the NYMT's concert, hosted by Matt Lucas, at the Vaudeville Theatre on Sunday, April 22. Toby said: "It's really exciting to have been chosen to appear in this production. I'm really looking forward to acting and singing alongside Matt Lucas in his concert at The Vaudeville."
