Motown The Musical, currently playing in London's Shaftesbury Theatre, is looking for an actor to take the role of the young Michael Jackson.

The show's casting director, Natalie Gallacher, said, “since we opened the show here in London we have had the pleasure of working with some great children. We are now looking for the next group of boys to join us at the Shaftesbury Theatre to play one of the most iconic roles in the music industry.

"If you are male, black or mixed race, aged 8 to 13 years old with an unbroken voice and you can to commute to London, then we would love to hear from you.”

Open auditions will be held on 18 March at Hackney Empire.
