Why spend a lot of time running from season audition to season audition or auditioning for one show then another, then another? Bunbury Theatre Company, The Chicken Coop Theatre Company, Drag Daddy Productions, Eve Theatre Company, Mind’s Eye Theatre, Pandora Productions, Redline Performing Arts and Time Slip Theatre are coming together to produce a combined season audition for actors, singers and dancers who are interested in working with one or all of these companies. All of the auditioning companies are committed to equity, diversity and inclusion in casting and staffing and highly encourage actors, singers and dancers of all ethnicities, races, body types and gender identities to audition. The producers and directors of the attending companies would like to meet as many new performers as possible. These combined company general auditions will be held on Sunday, May 8th (4 – 8 p.m.) and Monday, May 9th (6 – 10 p.m.) by appointment only. Callbacks will not be held the same dates but rather scheduled by each individual company at a later time, most occurring in late May or early June. Appointments can be made by completing the form at this address: https://lp.constantcontactpages.com/sv/IViuK6n/combinedauditionform · Auditionees should bring a picture and resume (stapled or glued together please) for each company (8 total). · Actors (who aren’t singing) prepare two contrasting monologues no longer than 2 minutes each. · Actors (who are singing) prepare 32 bars of an uptempo song and prepared with a contrasting song. · Actors (who are singing) prepare one monologue no longer than 2 minutes in addition to your song. · Actor/Singers may perform material from the shows being cast if they’d like. · An accompanist will be provided but please bring music in the correct key with cuts clearly marked. · Dancers may bring recorded music and perform a short routine that incorporates various styles. · No separate dance call will be held at this general audition. · The companies are happy to have performers present any combination of the above requirements. · Total audition time should not exceed 5 minutes as the company reps may also want to ask questions.
