AUDITIONS!

Fauquier Community Theatre invites you to audition for Bad Auditions on Camera. Calling ages late teens to 60s for 13 roles.The production will be rehearsed, produced, and presented online.

Auditions will take place online via Zoom on Friday, January 8, 2021 from 7 pm to 10 pm and Saturday, January 9, 2021 at 7 pm to 10 pm. Signups are in one hour time slot increments. Please note that you will be sent an invitation to Zoom by the day before auditions. Those who cannot make auditions may send in a video submission of a monologue of 1 minute. At the beginning of the video, state your first and last name clearly. Please note that priority will be given to those who audition online and not by video submission. Auditions will consist of actors presenting a dramatic or comedic monologue of 1 minute and cold reading from the script.

The show will be streamed on the weekend of February 20 and 21, 2021. The synopsis: A casting director has one day to find an actor to fill the role of a lawyer in a crime procedural. But what seems like a simple task proves impossible when the pool of actors includes stage thespians who can’t tone it down for the screen, performers completely unable to keep themselves in frame, and an actor who seems to believe this is a toothpaste commercial. The audience will vote for who they think should get the role as they step behind the doors of a casting session in this hilarious comedy.

Auditioning at FCT

Auditioning for a show can be challenging. Just remember that the directors all want you to do your best and succeed. We try our bestto make the experience fun and a time to meet new people. But there are things that you should know. Each director for each show may need to see and hear things in a different manner. This means that you should check the audition announcement carefully. For a straight (non-musical) play you will probably be asked to do cold readings from the script. Occasionally, you may be asked to prepare a short monologue to perform. For a musical, you will be given some pretty specific information about selecting and performing your audition song. You may be given a type of song to perform, a way to perform (with or without accompaniment or tracks), and a time to come depending on your age range. You will generally be asked to learn a short dance routine with a group and perform that. The audition form is a form to fill out online. Please fill this out prior to coming to an audition. We love all our performers and hope that you will join us for a show in the future.

Auditions are open to the public and all levels of experience are welcome.
