AUDITIONS

CENTRAL ALBERTA THEATRE will be holding general auditions for its 2024-2025 season on Monday June 17 and Tuesday June 18 at the Red Deer Memorial Centre (4214-58 Street, Red Deer) in the Studio Theatre (formerly Nickle Studio). Auditions will be held between the hours of 6:00pm and 10:00pm each evening. Call backs will then be scheduled on Wednesday June 19.

Each individual will be asked to prepare a 2 minute monologue, and also do a cold read from one of our featured plays of the season. If you do not have a monologue, we can provide one for you from our library which can be either gender neutral or gender specific. We ask that you arrive at least 10 minutes before your audition.

Below is a description of characters from our plays we will be auditioning for. This includes Dracula, Miss Bennet: Christmas at Pemberley, and Pouf!

Please note: Auditions for our final production of the season Opal's Million Dollar Duck will not be considered for this round of auditions, however they will be scheduled for a later date.

If you would like to book an audition, and request an audition package with monologues, please contact our Production Manager Jeremy Robinson at jeremycentralalbertatheatre@gmail.com or call at 403-309-0522 for more information.
