TOM OF WARWICK is featured as the finale of the show in a one-on-one scene with King Arthur. The actor chosen for the role will see firsthand what it is like to take part in a real Broadway show, complete with a costume fitting and sound check. This amazing opportunity is a once in a lifetime experience for an aspiring young actor!
