Everyone is WELCOME to Audition for any of our productions. It is not necessary to have any prior experience, however it is helpful to come to the audition prepared. Audition packets are available about a month prior to the auditions. These packets will help you understand the director’s expectations, and know how to prepare for the auditions. Audition packets are available by clicking on the AUDITION INFORMATION link under the audition poster. You may call (970)249-7838 or e-mail mcp@montrose.net to request an audition packet.

Following the original audition dates, a director may hold CALL BACKS to get a second look at an actor, hear another song selection, or see how one would match-up with other actors. A Call Back does not necessarily mean that an actor will be cast, and not receiving a call back, does not necessarily mean that an actor is not cast.

Call Backs
Following original audition dates, it is often necessary for directors to hold Call Backs to get a second look at an actor, hear another song selection, see how one would match-up with other actors, etc. A Call-Back does not mean that a specific actor is cast, but, it does indicate interest. Not being called back, does not necessarily mean that an actor is not cast.
Casting
Directors have a vision in mind when casting their play, however, so much depends on who comes to the auditions, and what each individual actor brings to the audition in terms of preparation, skill, talent and passion. Of significant consideration is how the cast fits together – this can sometimes be determined by age, familial similarity, height, and how actors interact with one another. Once the show is cast, actors will be notified. The director will inform actors at the auditions whether this will be by a phone call, text message, e-mail or a posted list outside the theatre. Magic Circle Players strives to cast new faces and talent, and we encourage anyone who is even a little bit intrigued about live theatre to join the fun and COME AUDITION WITH US!
