The Edinburgh University Theatre Company are delighted to announce open auditions for their 2015 Edinburgh Fringe show,Ada.

Ada is a devised production exploring the life, works and legacy of Ada Lovelace, daughter of Lord Byron and the world’s first computer programmer. The piece will be devised, and the cast and team will work together using source material about Ada, and her life, along with some ideas and theories about modern computing to collaboratively create the production. At this point in time there are no specific roles, and we are looking to cast a company of actors who we will work with to develop the characters and narratives in the piece. Absolutely anybody and everybody is welcome to come and audition, and there is no experience necessary. We would love to meet you!

Town Hall has turned itself into an all-night hub full of drinking cocktails and doing the fox trot. Come celebrate this historic event with the cast of Bedlam’s upcoming production: Journey’s End! Journey’s End takes place during the final stages of WWI and this is a night which promises to feel just like that (a little less war, a little more drink).
