Open Audition – Derby Theatre

    Did you know that we offer general auditions once a year for local actors? We also work with casting directors to find the right people for our productions.
    We cast in different ways:1) Auditions for specific productions2) General open auditions once a year3) Invites to individual meetings

    We would encourage any actor hoping to join the Derby Theatre Company to familiarise themselves with our season and our work.

    We suggest if you are local that you come to see the work we make and get to know us. We often offer free tickets and discounted offers through our Artists’ Network.

    We have an integrated casting policy:

    • We seek to cast actors from all cultural groups and of all ethnicities.
    • We also seek to provide opportunities for Deaf and Disabled actors to be cast in our productions.
    • We will cast Trans people in Trans roles, and also in roles outside of those.

    We hold regular General Auditions in Derby as an opportunity for Midlands and Northern-based actors to meet with and audition for Artistic Director Sarah Brigham.

    The auditions are not for a specific production, but help us widen our knowledge of actors we might work with in the future on everything from workshops, scratch performances, creative engagement work and readings, community touring, through to our mainstage productions.
