WHAT TO PREPARE

In an effort to respect everyone’s time, we are asking all artists to sign up for an 5 minute time slot. All auditioners will be given 3 minutes to show what they’d like to prepare, and a 2 minute buffer to allow for any additional conversation. While the recommendation is two shorter cuts of contrasting songs or one short song, auditioners may use their 5 minutes in any way they choose. No acapella singing, please. An Accompanist will be provided. 

 

Invited callbacks for NINE will be held on the evening of Monday, November 9th. Auditionees will be sent further information by the evening of Tuesday, November 3rd  if the production team would like them to attend. All Auditionees will be contacted by early December with a casting decision.

Our show choices and additional programming will provide a mix of established and well known content with under represented and inspiring works.

 

CONTRACT

All performers will be offered a $300 total stipend for each contracted show. While we are a growing theater, we are committed to paying all non-rep company member performers the same stipend across the board. This also means we are unable to offer Equity contracts at this time.
