'Wheel of Forturne' auditions at Marlborough mall

Want to spin the wheel? Casting scouts for "Wheel of Fortune" plan to park their 32-foot Wheelmobile next to Sears at the Solomon Pond Mall located at 601 Donald Lynch Blvd. in Marlborough on Saturday, June 27 and Sunday, June 28 from 1-5 p.m.

On both days, on-site registration will be open to the public and a select few registered applicants will be selected to play in front of a panel of casting judges. All registered names will be kept for a possible callback in the future.

As previously reported, letter-turner Vanna White was spotted shooting a commercial on the brownstone-lined West Cedar Street in Boston's Beacon Hill neighborhood in the early evening on Tuesday, May 12. White also shot some footage on Acorn Street in Charlestown.

The TV game show icon was in town shooting promos for three weeks worth of Boston-set episodes of "Wheel of Fortune" slotted to be shot at the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center located at 348 D St. in South Boston. Taping at the Convention Center is slotted to begin Thursday, Sept. 3 until Saturday, Sept. 5.

Vanna White shoots 'Wheel of Fortune' promos

Vanna White, America's favorite letter-turner from "Wheel of Fortune," was spotted shooting a commercial on the brownstone-lined West Cedar Street in Boston's Beacon Hill neighborhood in the early evening on Tuesday, May 12. White also shot some footage on Acorn Street in Charlestown.

The TV game show icon is in town this week to tape several promos for three weeks worth of Boston-set episodes of "Wheel of Fortune" slotted to be shot at the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center located at 348 D St. in South Boston. Taping at the Convention Center is slotted to begin Thursday, Sept. 3 until Saturday, Sept. 5.

White is also scheduled to tape a commercial at the Paul Revere House and at lunchtime on Thursday, May 14 walking out of the Union Oyster House located at 41 Union Street.

Established in 1826 and a designated national historical landmark, the colorful Union Oyster House near Faneuil Hall showcases Boston's old-school charm with wooden booths and lanterns hanging from dark beams.

"We do a lot of shooting around town and getting a chance to look at some of the sites. There aren't a lot of cities with more to see than Boston," Pat Sajak spilled to WBZ-TV's Kate Merrill back in March.
