Please join Director Michelle Brandenburg in a collaborative process to bring Ben Crocker's Beauty and the Beast: A Pantomime to life (This isn't your Disney's Beauty and the Beast).

*To note, if you'd like to audition: yes, there will be singing. There will also be acting, and dancing, and the graceful treading of pantomime boards. That said, we are also looking for multidisciplinary performance artists who can help bring some of the fantastical magic of the play to life in a live theatre performance. So this is also a call for puppeteers, clowns, acrobats, mimes, magicians and et cetera! Anyone who is comfortable with a whimsical, exploratory, fun discovery process is most welcome to sign up for an audition. We look forward to meeting you all!
 
If you have a brilliant skill that you would like to bring to the table please let us know so we can tailor your audition. Not a tradition actor? That is okay, get in touch with us and we will find a way for you to showcase what you have to offer. Auditioners should be prepared for a rehearsal process that mixes the tradition rehearsal process with a collaborative creative process. We will have the opportunity to skill-build throughout and ideally create a truly memorable experience for our audience.
