Auditions are open to everyone, and if selected, you will need to become a member of the theatre ($25), if you are not a current financial member. 

Note:
Please don’t hold back from auditioning. If a director doesn’t know you want to have a go, it makes it really difficult for a director to know you were thinking about a role. 
This also applies if you want to try stage managing, stage hand or tech – let the director know early and we can get training asap. We are ALWAYS looking for enthusiastic & reliable volunteers! 

Rehearsals:
Rehearsals commence Thursday, 11th February 2021 with a read-through, then every Monday & Thursday from 15th February, 7:30-9:30pm.
