Would you Adam and Eve it?
Auditions for next year’s production – the first to be take place in the Museum Gardens for more than two decades and set to attract more than 30,000 – begin this weekend.
The plays will be staged in a purpose-built 1,500-seat outdoor theatre, with the abbey acting as a backdrop. The main purpose of the auditions is to recruit several lead roles, including some of the most famous couples in history such as Mary and Joseph and Adam and Eve.
