Ready for this... ANYONE can audition.

Although headshots and theatrical resumes are wonderful assets to have, they are not required for auditions at the Generic Theater.

Yourself and a sense of fun is really all you need to bring.

Scripts are available for you to check out and peruse. This will provide you an opportunity to get to know and understand the character(s) that you wish to audition for. We also encourage you to do an internet search to better understand the script.

Please contact the box office if you are interested in perusing a copy of the script.

Auditions usually start prompty at 7:00pm. We ask that you arrive at 6:45pm in order to give you ample time to complete a short questionaire. The questionaire id designed to let our directors get to know you and your acting strengths.

Upon completing the questionaire, you will be asked to wait until called into the theater to meet the director. The director may choose to speak with you one-on-one or in small groups. You will 'cold read' samples taken from the script. You may be asked to read multiple times with different groups of actors. For musicals or plays containing singing, you may be asked to provide a vocal sample.

Auditions typically run for two days with a third day reserved for call backs. Call backs require additional readings from the script and may involve other actors.

This is a mere guideline into what you may expect during an audition. Auditions are conducted by the director, so dates and times may fluctuate. Please check the website or call the theater for the current dates and times of the production you wish to participate.

The only hard rule we have at the Generic Theater is have FUN.
