CHILDREN are invited to dazzle directors for a chance to win a year-long scholarship at a drama school.

Razzamataz Barnet, in Wren Academy, is appealing for children aged between 8-16-years-old, across North London to apply.

A scholarship will entitle them to attend Razzamataz Barnet free for a year starting from the autumn term.

Previous scholarship winners from other UK Razzamataz schools, have appeared in professional productions and have gained places to top colleges to further their performing arts training.

Michael French, principal of Razzamataz Barnet said: “We are looking for raw talent so it doesn’t matter if you have not taken part in any performing arts classes before.

"We can spot the potential in these youngsters and know that with training from our highly experienced teachers, these young people can acquire the skills they need to progress in the performing arts.”

The deadline for auditions is July 31.

People can apply by calling 01923 805846, or 592171 or email barnet@razzamataz.co.uk.
