How Can I Audition for ACT Shows?

General open auditions for specific roles will be held throughout the season. Watch this page for audition dates and times as well as audition requirements.

Are the Auditions Open to the General Public?

All auditions are open to anyone in the community regardless of previous experience. Roles are open to racially diverse and gender-inclusive casting for actors of all physical and neurological abilities. Our casting seeks to be as inclusive as possible and we invite gender nonconforming, genderqueer, transgender, and nonbinary actors to select the roles they most identify with.

Knowledge of the material is encouraged but not required.
