Thirty-two actors from across Melbourne are gearing up for the upcoming shows, which run from 11 to 27 June at the Drum Theatre in Dandenong.
The team has been rehearsing since the end of January, says Windmill Theatre Company’s vice-president Geoff Shields.
“They have been rehearsing a couple of times a week since then, as well as helping out with building and painting the set,” Mr Shields said.
“It is a lot of hard work, but we have a lot of fun as well.”
Mr Shields said audiences could expect a thrilling performance of Miss Saigon.
“The story behind Miss Saigon is so intimate. It tells the story of normal people that are caught up in events that they have no control over,” he said.
“It resets Puccini’s tragic Madame Butterfly in the final weeks of the Vietnam War.”
Tickets for adults cost $37 and concessions $33.
