Madrid.-- The film producer switches gears as he calls for auditions to start next Monday at Madrid´s new Canal Theater Center.

Auditions for the musical, "The Last Horseman" , scheduled to premiere next season, will be held on Monday in the Sala Negra of Madrid´s Canal Theater Center. Auditioning dancers, actors and singers will try out for a variety of parts under the watchful eyes of Andrés Vicente Gómez's production company, Lola Films.

This new production "is a fantasy about the story of the founders of Arabia based on historical characters, set in the Victorian age. It will include a significant dance component and combine several genres including musical theater and dancing," said the show's director, Víctor Conde.

The script was written by Ray Loriga, music is being done by John Cameron and Víctor Conde, of 'Cabaret', 'Mamma Mía', 'Les Misérables' and 'Pegados' fame, is the director. Karen Bruce, of 'A chorus line', 'Fame' and 'Footloose' will choreograph the piece.

"The Last Horseman" is a story about Arabian horses and how the English travelled around the world with these horses. It is a magical '1.001 nights'," Victor Conde explained.

The production originated from the will to innovate the musical theater to join the ranks of the big Broadway and West End musicals. Indeed, there are two production teams working simultaneously, one with a Spanish cast and the other with a British cast.
