Auditions

FAQs

  • The director will choose excerpts from the script to be read by those at auditions. These will be distributed at the audition. Generally, no monologue or other materials will be needed for non-musical auditions. Scripts are available for check out 1-2 weeks before the audition. We highly recommend that you read the script ahead of time to familiarize yourself with the story and characters.

    For a musical, you will need to prepare roughly 30 seconds, or 16-bars of a song that showcases your voice. An accompanist will be present if you have sheet music, or we will have a speaker available if you are using a pre-recorded track. There will also be a choreographer present to teach a simple dance routine.

  • Anyone! We produce a variety of shows, all of which require different and diverse casts. As a community theatre, we welcome everyone to come be a part of our season.

  • Auditions are generally held 2 months before a show is set to open. Depending on the show, this can vary. Audition dates for each show can be found further down on this page.

  • The cast list will be emailed out to all of those that auditioned, and will be posted to The Point Theatre’s Facebook page. The list is typically posted within 1 week of the audition date.

  • Rehearsal schedules can vary depending on what works best for the director and cast. Typically, rehearsals take place on weekdays in the evenings; usually beginning at 6pm. Depending on the role you are cast in, you may not be required to attend every rehearsal. Technical rehearsals are held the week leading up to opening night. Tech rehearsals are mandatory for all cast and crew of a show, and will normally run later than other rehearsals.

  • That’s no problem! We encourage everyone to come and audition! The Point Theatre is a place where lovers of the performing arts can come together, regardless of experience, to learn and create. We are an educational facility, with many knowledgeable people that can help you grow as an artist!

  • Don’t give up! We have all been there, and we know how it feels. Unfortunately, there are only so many parts in each show and, though we’d like to, we can’t cast everyone. Don’t let that discourage you! Ask us about ways you can still be involved in the production. We are always looking for volunteers to help with painting, lighting, sound, costumes, backstage crew, and other vital roles to help our productions get on their feet. Also don’t forget, we are always moving forward and the next round of auditions will be here before you know it!

Upcoming Auditions

March 29 @ 11 AM & March 31 @ 6:30 PM

Directed by Treston Woods

About the Show:
Welcome to opening night of The Murder at Haversham Manor, a 1920s murder mystery put on by the hopelessly inept Cornley Drama Society. The problem? Everything that can go wrong, DOES go wrong! Set pieces collapse, lines are forgotten, props go missing, and the actors struggle to keep things (barely) together—resulting in non-stop, gut-busting comedy.

Roles Available:

Chris (The Director/Inspector Carter) – The desperate director trying to keep the show afloat while playing the lead detective. Spirals from frustration to full-blown panic.

Robert (Thomas Colleymoore) – Over-the-top and dramatic, Robert throws himself into every scene—sometimes literally.

Dennis (Perkins, the Butler) – Earnest but completely clueless, Dennis mispronounces half his lines and doesn’t realize how bad he is.

Max (Cecil Haversham/Arthur the Gardener) – Excited beyond reason to be onstage, Max soaks up the audience’s attention and plays to the crowd.

Sandra (Florence Colleymoore) – The overly dramatic leading lady who refuses to let mishaps stop her. Also not afraid to literally fight for her moment in the spotlight.

Annie (The Stage Manager) – Meant to stay behind the scenes but forced onstage. At first reluctant, she soon embraces the chaos.

Trevor (The Lighting & Sound Tech) – Doesn’t care about the show at all… until things go horribly wrong and he’s pulled in.

Jonathan (Charles Haversham) – The "dead" body that refuses to stay still. Endures endless physical comedy disasters.

This show is fast, physical, and wildly funny, so we need actors with great comedic timing, high energy, and a love for slapstick!

Think you have what it takes to survive the disaster? Then don’t miss your chance to be part of this riotous, award-winning comedy!

Questions? Message us! Otherwise, we’ll see you (hopefully in one piece) at auditions!
