Description:CASTINGAfter a huge national profile boost on ITV’s 'Walk The Line’, a sell-out run at Edinburgh Fringe 2021 and a show stopping performance at West End Live, Queenz - The Show with Balls! is stiletto strutting into 2022 with some incredible opportunities for exceptionally talented artists who can sing like Whitney & Dance like Britney! From backstreet bars to musical theatre stars we are searching far and wide for future drag prodigies to be a part of our incredibly talented cast of Queenz. All candidates must present exceptional lead vocals, strong commercial movement skills (including strong heels technique), and have undeniable star quality. Queenz is a life-affirming night of fun and frolics with a bunch of 'boys' who dance like Britney and sing like Whitney! 5 vocal powerhouses armed with songs, sass, and plenty to say... ready to spread the word, fly the flag, and march to an anthemic new beat. Together let's unite the world in all its sequined glory for a non-apologetic pop party, celebrating unity, unicorns, divas, and death drops. Queenz features remixed and reimagined pop anthems from The Spice Girls, Little Mix, Beyonce, Madonna, GaGa, Britney, Whitney, and everything in between. Casting Details Artists will be required to self-tape by request, followed by an in-person audition shortly after. In person dates TBC - Likely 24 & 25th Feb - London Roles/Casting Breakdowns All of our roles are open to artists of all ethnicities, backgrounds and identities. Bella Du Ball - A vocal power-house and she knows it. A breath-taking diva with riffs that would make Beyoncé blush. Bella loves the limelight and refuses to fade into the background… Nobody puts Bella in the corner! Counter-Tenor - Strong Mix & Riffs - B3 - F#5 Dia Monte - Hollywood glamour and old-school sophistication, Dia is like a champagne glass with a sprinkling of sass, serving a sparkling gown to match her sparkling crown. The only thing sharper than her contour is her tongue. Tenor - Strong Mix & Thin Folds B2 - C5 ZeZe Van Cartier - Our bold and beautiful 'gender-bender' marches to the beat of their own drum in a killer pair of thigh-high boots. They’re loud, proud, and always stand out from the crowd. They’re an activist, an anarchist, breaking down the cis-tem has never looked (or felt) this fabulous! In terms of vocals, think of the smooth stylings of soulful artists like Billy Porter, Whitney Houston and Aretha Franklin. High Baritone - Soulful - Bb2 - G4 Billie Eyelash - Drag isn’t all poise and pageantry, and nobody knows this better than our spunky & spicy rock queen. Clad in leather and lace, with a super-star voice to match. Billie doesn’t crash the party…she is the party. Tenor - Strong Mix - B3 - C5 Candy Caned - Don’t let the big boobs and pink sequins fool you… get this Essex girl over a beat and her spoken word will blow your mind.
