Our troupe members for the season will be committing to three shows--Frankenstein (early November), (tentatively--subject to change) The Great Gatsby (February), and Taming of the Shrew (late June)--including one or two rehearsals for each show, 1-2 performances per show, skill development workshops, and get-to-know-you/troupe bonding sessions (typically optional, but very helpful).
Auditions will consist of improv games and reading from the three shows we're doing this season. The readings will be DDT-style, so expect us to New Choice you, ask you to do different accents, perform as though you're in other locations, and generally ad-lib as you feel necessary.
We will email auditioners with sides to review before auditions. Please do NOT memorize them.
We will have three 50-minute rounds of auditions, with space for 15 performers per round. Please sign up for only one round. You will need to be there for the full 50 minutes. When you finish your audition, you are welcome to stay and watch the auditions after you. You may not watch the audition groups before yours.
We will have a panel consisting of our founder, assistant producers, advisory board members, and former troupe members. We will also be inviting members of the public to watch the auditions to provide an audience member's perspective AND to make sure there are folks to laugh at your awesome performances! If you are not interested in auditioning and want to provide feedback on auditions as an audience member, please email [email protected] or message us on Instagram or Facebook for details.
