An Audience With Shankly celebrates the life and work of the man who managed Liverpool FC to greatness in the 60's and 70's.
''We've had a tremendous response since the call-out for anyone who felt they could play the man himself," said writer Andrew Sherlock.
"We've been inundated with applications from performers and fans alike.
"It feels like the build up to a big match this week as these auditions will decide, once and for all, who will play Bill Shankly.''
