Below is some general information for auditions for shows at T. Schreiber Studio.

NOTE: Auditions are only open to T. Schreiber Studio current students or alumni who have studied at the Studio for at least three months, or have completed our Conservatory course.

  • Auditions are open to all students, regardless of race, color, creed, gender, height, weight or age.
  • You must be a student at the T. Schreiber Studio for at least 3 months, or have completed our Conservatory course before you are eligible to audition.
  • You must sign up in person (do not call the office to sign up). Sign-up sheets are posted on the audition board at the Studio. Auditions will be held at ten minute intervals.
  • Be certain you can make the audition date before you sign-up, AND IF NECESSARY, please cancel well in advance.

    BEING A READER: Readers sit in on auditions and read opposite the auditionee. This is an extremely valuable way to learn about auditioning. Male and Female readers are generally needed for auditions, but please note that readers are not allowed to audition. You can sign up to be a reader on the callboard. If you sign up, please make sure you make time to read the entire play before you get to auditions.

A Word about Auditioning

Over all the level of auditioning at the Studio has been very high…thank you for that!

Some of you who are new to auditioning will from time to time ask if it is wise to audition just for the sake of auditioning. Well, yes and no. Do not audition on a “lark” – it will not give you a true example of what you can do. Only audition if you are very interested in a role and have the time and initiative to fully prepare. The only way you will get a true and valuable experience auditioning is if you put in a lot of work on the play and the posted sides. Examine the play closely and work diligently on the sides. Do not audition if you are not prepared to take the role if offered. Check your schedule!

If you’ve put in the work over many days, you will be close to being off-book, however carry the text with you. Get someone to read opposite you before coming in to audition. That will help with the back and forth you will experience with the reader in the audition room. Be prepared and then relax and let the moment carry you.
