PARTICIPANT DETAILS

Auditions take place on Sunday, 27 September 2026 (2pm-5pm) at Aquila School Dubai in a black box studio which will be set up in a rehearsal style to make all our elves comfortable! Please check your inboxes for emailed information on location, agenda and anything else needed.

You do not have to audition for all three aspects of the show (singing, dancing, acting) but your final roles will be assigned according to the abilities and attitudes you show us on the day.

Please note that Junior Elves are likely to be called in separately to the Senior Elves and Adults to begin, with a purposefully relaxed involvement if they are new to performing or are one of our very young elves. Elf parents are welcome to discuss how their little elves could get involved this year!

AUDITION DETAILS

AUDITION TERMS AND CONDITIONS

I understand that auditioning does not guarantee me a role in The Elf in the Gulf.

I understand that The Elf in the Gulf tech and performances are scheduled for 3-6 December 2026, and I will be needed for all scheduled times that weekend.

I understand that Collab Company is seeking a cast and crew who respect their collaborative, community-centric methodology.

I understand that there is a cast and crew fee involved in The Elf in the Gulf which covers performance licenses as well as props, costumes, accessories and your own show shirt.

I understand that full cast rehearsals are likely to take place on a Sunday afternoon with smaller rehearsals taking place during the week (even via Zoom) but only as necessary.
