Max Martin has written some of the biggest pop songs in history, and now there's a musical being made about the man himself.

Stuart Burt Casting has uploaded a casting call to Twitter that reveals a Max Martin musical in progress.

The casting call asks for performers in their 20s-30s from all ethnic backgrounds. You'll need to be able to sing pop classics insanely well, or be a hip-hop performer who can sing too.

They're also looking for breakdancers and aerial dancers who can also sing to a "high standard".
