ByNeil Cheesman

Geek! A New MusicalGeek! A New Musical premiered at the Tristan Bates Theatre in the heart of London’s West End on 22nd April and run until 18th May 2013.

Ever felt like a teenage outcast? Sidelined by the popular kids? Just want to be loved, admired and crazy beautiful?
Well get over yourself ‘cos it ain’t gonna happen sweetie!

This  new musical might just offer some solace in what you laughably call your life. Geek! A New Musical is an hilarious new piece of writing from the quill of Scott Morgan.

The cast includes Ewen Macintosh (The Office) and CJ de Mooi (Eggheads).

Geek! A New Musical will be having open auditions on February 20th and 21st with callbacks soon after. There will be casting notices on Spotlight, Casting Call Pro and StarNow so keep an eye out. To ensure the nurturing of new talent, at least one role in the production will go to a performer who has never had a professional contract.

CJ de Mooi very kindly took time out recently to answer some questions about Geek! A New Musical. Enjoy!

It would be great if you could ‘LIKE’ and ‘SHARE’ on YouTube.com
