Has anyone ever called you a drama queen? Now’s your chance to prove them right.
Theatre Charleston is having an open audition session Sat. April 12 at the Footlight Theatre beginning at 1 p.m. Companies like PURE Theatre, the Footlight Players, Midtown Productions, and Village Repertory Company use the Unified Auditions as their yearly open auditions, and while this is not a casting call, many theaters give call backs later in the season to their favorite auditions.
Even established actors are encouraged to show off their versatility at the Unified Auditions. This year, theater techs are also encouraged to attend.
Auditions are open to members of Theatre Charleston. There is a $25 fee for membership. Actors will be allotted 90 seconds to perform a monologue or song, and an accompanist will be provided. Technical artists will have a two-minute slot to explain their skills to directors and producers. Slots will be provided on a first come, first serve basis.
If this sounds intimidating, Theatre Charleston is holding a free workshop on Sat. March 22 at South of Broad Studios at 1:30 p.m. Thespians of all skills and experience levels are welcome.
