Audition Information

Initial auditions for the spring show, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, will be on Thursday, Dec. 4, at 6-9 p.m. in Cowles Auditorium Stage II. 
 
Callbacks will be on Friday, Dec. 5, at 5-8 p.m. in Cowles Auditorium Stage II.

For initial auditions, no sign-ups are necessary. If you want to audition, please show up on time and be prepared to do some movement exercises. This means you should plan to wear comfortable clothing you can dance and move in, like tights, sweats and leggings.

After movement exercises, you will be asked to perform a monologue from the play. It is suggested (but not required) that you prepare ahead of time by picking up the Monologue Audition Packet at the theatre office (Cowles Auditorium Room 101). Choose a monologue you like and practice performing it. It does not have to be memorized for your audition. 

Callbacks for the play will be announced, emailed and posted by midnight on Dec. 4.

If you are called back, please arrive promptly at the theatre at 5 p.m. Everyone will again be doing movement exercises, so wear movement clothing to the audition. Afterwards, you will be divided up to do cold readings of scenes from the script.

The cast list will be announced, emailed and posted by midnight on Dec. 5.

If you would like to read the script, it will be available for 24-hour checkout from the theatre office (Cowles Auditorium Room 101) beginning Nov. 1, 2025. Stop by during office hours to check out a script and read it.
