Is your dog a star?

Actor Melinda Schneider has put out a call for pawditions for a furry co-star.Melinda Schneider returns to The J Noosa and The Events Centre Caloundra to pay tribute to the legendary Doris Day, who passed away, aged 97. Melinda will perform her show, A Farewell To Doris on Saturday March 20 at the J Noosa and Saturday March 27 at The Events Centre Caloundra, and is on the search for a local four-legged star.

The six-time CMAA Golden Guitar Award winner is inviting dogs of all breeds to “pawdition” for a starring role in the show.

The dogs must be obedient, professional, take direction well and be able to smile at the audience. No previous stage experience is necessary, but ability to walk on stage, jump up on a chair and be sung to, is essential.

If you believe your pooch has what it takes to steal the show, send us a picture of your dog and tell us in 25 words or less why your doggie is perfect for the part to management@melindaschneider.com by Tuesday March 16.

Melinda herself will be choosing the lucky dog who will accompany her on stage. The winner will receive two complimentary tickets to the show and a packet of schmackos.
