Auditions are open to anyone and everyone.
The director of the show has the final decision on casting the actor that they feel is best for the role. However, whenever legally required to do so by our performance agreement we will cast within the limitations set by the playwright (age, gender, weight, race, etc.).
If cast, you will be required to become a member of Monroe Community Players. Memberships start at $20 and may be purchased HERE. Membership is valid from July 1- June 30. There is also a $10 participation fee for each production you are cast in to assist in defraying the costs of production.
Monroe Community Players maintains a policy of open casting at all auditions. This means that you will be auditioning in front of a group of others who are auditioning and may be asked to perform along with them.
Below is information regarding upcoming auditions.
