Auditions for our upcoming productions take place at the theatre and are open to everyone. We encourage you to contact the show director prior to auditioning using the contact details in the audition notice.
Everyone at our theatre is a volunteer and all cast and crew are expected to contribute behind the scenes when not performing, such as assisting with the bar, Front of House, backstage or set construction.
