CITYWIDE MATERIAL/TIMING GUIDELINES

• The first half of each audition day will consist of monologues only ~ 90 seconds or less of material. Monologues from published plays (or produced screenplays) are preferred. If you exceed your 90-second time limit, you will be cut off politely at the stage manager’s discretion. You may do ONE 90-second (or less) monologue or two brief contrasting monologues that both fit into your 90-second timeframe. Up to you. Monologue-only auditioners should plan to:

   1. enter the room from downstage left when directed to do so

   2. introduce yourself briefly

   3. rock your 90 seconds of monologue(s) - timer begins with the first word of the monologue

   4. say thank you and exit downstage right

• The 2nd part of each audition day is for people who wish to perform song AND monologue ~ 16 bars (roughly 30 seconds) of a song with cleanly cut sheet music that will stand up nicely on the piano, and then 90 seconds of monologue(s) according to the guidelines above. An accompanist will be provided (see www.robgreenfield.com ). No acapella singing, please. To help the day go as efficiently as possible, singers should plan to:
   1. provide sheet music to the door monitor in advance of your appointment time (your music will enter the room before you do)

   2. enter the room from downstage left when directed to do so
   3. set tempo briefly with Rob at the keyboard

   4. introduce yourself briefly
   5. sing 16 bars

   6. slay that 90-second monologue

   7. say thank you and exit downstage right (you do not need to retrieve your music -- we will bring it out to you after your appointment)

   8. your music will be returned to you by the down-stage-left door monitor (who took it from you in the first place) moments after your audition

(This order of events will allow Rob to review the next auditioner’s music while you do your monologue. Thank you for respecting this logistical request.)

​

AUDITION DETAILS

• In its second year, the ATX Theatre Citywide Auditions bring producers/directors together with local talent in the spirit of Awareness, Belonging, and Collaboration. This is not a stressy audition. It is fun and welcoming, so get in that mode with us now. 

• This audition presents no cost barrier.

• Last year, we had 40 theatre producers/directors in the house for the Citywides. Producers have told us they use the casting website we build for these auditions all year long, and that actors have been cast or called back directly from the Citywides. We will update you on who is attending and provide their mailing address in case you want to send follow-up mail.
• Please complete the sign-up form ASAP to schedule your audition. Your exact audition time will be emailed to you. 

• Once the audition appointments fill, standby actors will be invited to wait in case of no-shows. As each section of each day fills, the form will be updated to let you know what sections are left.

• Sign up early as we expect slots to fill.

• The specific location of the event and a free parking pass for your day will be emailed to you with your appointment reminder two weeks prior to the audition.

​

AND THIS YEAR... A SPECIAL OPPORTUNITY that may become a tradition!

NAILED IT: Audition Highlights from the 2024 ATX Theatre Citywides will be an evening of live performances from a select group of actors. The producers/directors at the audition will vote on their favorites in several categories. All actors who show up to audition (unless they opt out of consideration at the audition) are in the running to be considered for this performance. Keep the evening of June 22 available to either perform in or watch NAILED IT. (Even if you aren't chosen for the show, watching great auditions is a terrific learning experience.) Actors who participate in the show will be provided a modest stipend, details TBA soon. Austin’s television/film/commercial casting directors and agents will be invited to this event as guests. We hope this is extra incentive to start preparing your audition early. 

​

AND NOW...

for an ooga-booga, feel-good luuuuv note from ATX Theatre. (I wish someone would have said this to me when I started auditioning, so I'm saying it to you.) May these good wishes be with you from now through June 1 or 2.
