Note on Auditions
All auditions are held at the Playhouse, 96 West Dearborn Street in downtown Englewood on the announced dates (usually Sundays and Mondays at 7 p.m.)
Scripts & Sides
Scripts and sides will be available for perusal below (sides only) or at the Box Office between 10:00am and 2:00pm weekdays. However, advance preparation isn’t required. In most cases, the director will ask you to read from the script. Callbacks are scheduled, if necessary, at the discretion of the director.
Major Announcement — Double-Up (Cluster) Auditions
We will be doubling-up auditions for six of the shows in our upcoming season. This is sometimes referred to as cluster auditions (auditioning multiple shows on the same date).
Actors will have the option of auditioning for one or both shows but because the shows run back to back, actors who are cast can only do one of the two shows.
These are the shows that will share audition dates:
- Lying in State and It’s A Wonderful Life – Aug 25 & 26, 2019
- Bus Stop and Lend Me A Tenor – Nov 17 & 18, 2019
- The Prisoner of Second Avenue and Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike – Feb 23 & 24, 2020
