Hi peanutbutter9!

There is going to be an audition for dancers, musicians, singers and
actors on December 11th, 12th and 13th in Tarragona Spain by a leading
company in the tourism and leisure sector.

If you are interested in this partial information that I was able to
locate, you could lower the price of your question accordingly.

(You can change the price by going to "My Account,"
selecting "My Unanswered Questions", clicking on the question, and
then clicking on "Change Question Parameters" to modify the pricing.)


Thanks,
Bobbie7

This is the type of information that I'm looking for, however the
inromations do not go as far as it needs to. I need to know addresses
of the casting companies, for I am not able to attend the auditions in
person. Also I would like to know of other employment oppertunities in
the other two countries. As well information as to sites that post
audition information would also help/

Thank you.

Request for Question Clarification by bobbie7-ga on 07 Dec 2003 20:53 PST
I have the contact information for the audition that will be held in
Spain and if I locate any additional information I will let you know.

In any case this question will remain open and hopefully another
researcher will find information for Portugal and Greece.

Best regards,
Bobbie7

Dear peanutbutter9,

I have been working on your question and the only lead I have is the
audition in Spain that I mentioned previously. This is a very
difficult research project due to language barriers.

If I discover additional information I will let you know.
