Haven on lookout for new stars
FANCY your chances in X-Factor-style auditions?
Now's your chance to show your talents as family holiday company Haven holds open auditions for entertainers in Southampton this week.
The open auditions are taking place at the Southampton Park Hotel, Cumberland Place, today and tomorrow.
Aspiring performers will be put through their paces by a panel of judges from Haven Holidays, which operates 35 holiday parks in the UK including Rockley Park, near Poole.
Haven wants to recruit 350 entertainers for the season beginning at the end of March.
Entertainments producer Simon Daniels said: "We are looking for dynamic people with bright, bubbly personalities. It's hard work but exhilarating and great fun."
Auditions
Auditions for FunStars, who help run the kids' clubs, talent shows and interactive stage shows, are from 9am, while auditions for dedicated singers and dancers are from 1pm.
Each day at Haven starts with character breakfasts when Haven mascots, Rory the Tiger, Bradley Bear and their friends entertain youngsters. Then there are kids' clubs, talent contests, interactive stage shows, bingo, party dances, games and competitions, character shows and professionally choreographed stage shows in the evening.
The audition will include games to break the ice, party dances to get you in the swing of a Haven holiday, and an opportunity to demonstrate your talent behind a microphone.
