Our Audition Process
For Regular Productions (non-musical)… Please show up about 6:45 pm. You will be greeted at the front of the auditorium where you will be handed an Audition Form to fill out. Most Directors will supply a character sheet that will help you choose which character to audition for. If you happen to have a headshot and resume, we can attach it to the audition form. If not, and you are new to the Theatre, we will take a small polaroid and attach it to the form. The auditions consist of cold reads from the play so the Directors can see how you read with others. You are usually welcome to come both nights if you want, but it is not mandatory.
For Musical Productions… You will start the evening by filling out the Audition Form. Again, if you have a headshot and resume, you can bring that or a photo may be taken to attach to your form. You will be required to bring a song that shows your range, usually no longer than 1-2 minutes. You can either supply sheet music for the pianist or a Bluetooth speaker will be supplied and you can use your phone for the music. If you bring sheet music for the pianist, please mark the beginning and ending of the song portion you will be singing. For some productions, you will also be doing movement auditions so please dress comfortably in something you can move in. If necessary, there may be call backs, but that will be mentioned during the auditions.
Some of our shows will post online Audition forms. Information will be in the show announcements.
We are excited to see you at Auditions! We love to see new people come out and join our theatre family! If you have any questions, please hit the button below and we will try and answer your questions. Hope to see you soon!!!

About the Show:
Come From Away is based on the true story of the time when the isolated community of Gander, Newfoundland, played host to the world. What started as an average day in a small town turned into an international sleepover, when 38 planes, carrying thousands of people from around the globe, were diverted to Gander’s airstrip on September 11, 2001. Undaunted by culture clashes and language barriers, the people of Gander cheered the stranded travelers with music, an open bar and the recognition that we’re all part of a global family.

About the Show:
This lively courtroom drama dives into the 1925 Scopes “Monkey” Trial, where a young Tennessee teacher, John Scopes, was tried for teaching Darwin’s theory of evolution. Two persuasive attorneys argue the case to determine the balance of church and state. In this fictionalized account, the smart Chicagoan, Henry Drummond, is the libertarian lawyer who volunteers his services for the defense. Opposing him is Matthew Harrison Brady, a demagogue who takes the words he has read in the bible absolutely literally. Denied the right to summon expert witnesses of his own, the defense lawyer decides to call Brady himself to the stand. While cross-examining him on his bible expertise, he exposes the ludicrous incoherence of fundamentalist’s beliefs.
