Play selection will be based on both the quality and quantity of the people that audition. Auditions will be Tuesday, October 8th and Wednesday October 9th in the Evans Theatre.

Auditioning at the theatre also provides an opportunity for students to qualify for Theatre Performance 1 and 2. If you wish to obtain university credit your participation allows you to register in Theatre Performance One (20:353) in the January term. Only those people who have successfully auditioned as actors or interviewed for a backstage position may register in this course.

Registration is not mandatory and many people have participated in past years as an extra-curricular activity in addition to their regular course load. You may choose to participate in the production either as an actor or as a backstage technician or designer.

Rehearsals will take place two to three evenings a week between Monday and Thursday beginning in November. Rehearsals will be scheduled to accommodate scheduling conflicts but availability is often an issue that affects casting. Depending on the number of roles actors could expect to rehearse between 50%-80% of that time. Opening night is scheduled for February 27, 2020. Thee rehearsals will also continue during the study break.

If you wish to audition please sign up for an audition time on the noticeboard outside Room 008 McKenzie. You do not need to prepare a monologue.

If the drama production instructor is not familiar with your work they may ask you to read from a play or do a short improvisation. For an interview for backstage work please contact Jim Forsythe personally before the end of October.
