Audition Information



We cast our season on a show-by-show basis. We hire union (Actors' Equity Association) and non-union actors. You may submit your headshot, resume and cover letter at any time in the season. It is helpful to know what show(s) for which you'd like to be considered (refer to our current season link for show information).

Script Submissions


Due to staff size and other constraints, we do not accept unsolicited scripts. We do however, accept submissions from professional agents. Small casts (up to 8) and unit set preferred. Other notes: thrust stage, no fly system and seating capacity of 266. We primarily produce contemporary comedy and drama. Visit our production Archives link to learn more about the kind of plays we've recently produced. Best time for agents to submit: between September and February. Professional agents only may send a full script along with any other press and support material.
