Hong Kong Youth Arts Foundation - Likes & Lies – Auditions for Youth Performers

Savannah and Chun navigate the complexities of friendship and romance in the digital age. As they connect through social media, they confront the challenges of modern relationships. With friends and digital personas influencing their choices, will they uncover what it truly means to be authentic in a world driven by likes and filters?

Following the success of last year's production, Gen Last, which was nominated for the United Nations Live Culture for Impact 2024, HKYAF is excited to present its next social issue-based musical, Likes & Lies. Written and directed by Lindsey McAlister with original music by Amuer Calderon, this production will take the stage at The Box, Freespace this November.

We are seeking passionate singers, dancers, and actors aged 9 to 25 who are eager to be part of this innovative performance.
