3. Please include any training you've had, and any of your recent credits.

We will then get in contact with you regarding an audition. You will need to send us a digital copy of your headshot and acting CV. It doesn't matter if they're not professional or you don't have many credits, we cast based solely on your audition.
The Audition Process
Auditions are a way for us to see what you're made of. They're usually no longer than fifteen minutes and require the following;
- A classical monologue. Shakespeare, Marlow etc. (required)
- A contemporary monologue. Must be from a published play or screenplay of the last 50 years. (required)
- A song. To be sung unaccompanied. (Optional)
- A movement piece. (Optional)
- A children's poem/story. (Optional)
Please inform us when applying which of the options you will be using in your audition. The first two are required but you may elect whether or not to do the others.
If choosing to sing, please inform us of your choice of song so that we may time your audition appropriately.
In regards to the movement piece, keep in mind that auditions may be held in a small area and you must be prepared with your accompanying music on a disk or mp3 player. Please also tell us the music you are using so we can schedule your audition appropriately.
All pieces must be learned by heart. We will not allow you to audition if you are reading from a script.
We also expect all candidates to have read or seen the play from their monologue of choice.
Please give us at least 48 hours’ notice if you wish to cancel your audition. Anything less than that without a valid reason and we will not allow you to audition again. It seems harsh but we have experienced unreliability in the past and we are only looking for those who can demonstrate commitment.
*All applicants must be 18 or older. Successful applicants are not guaranteed instant employment as casting is a factor. Contracts must be renewed annually with no expectation of an extra audition.
Advantages to joining our company
Our company of actors is constantly expanding. If you are successful and we do offer you a place, you will be entitled to the following. - First Refusal: Whenever we put on a production and a part is available that suits your casting we will give you first refusal before looking elsewhere. Occasionally this will require an extra audition but in many cases it will not. - Representation: We are building up a list of contacts within the industry that will come to us when they are in need of actors and extras.We will also ensure that contracts are fair and help to uphold them. - Show Reel Building: We have contacts within local media departments that are always in search of decent actors for their student films. These are a great way to build a show reel.
At present all of our productions are paid on a profit share basis. Please keep this in mind when applying.
Best of all, it's free to join.
