AUDITION
All Cottage Theatre auditions are open to any interested actors and none of our shows is precast. We try to make our auditions as friendly and fun as possible. Previous stage experience, while helpful, is not necessary to audition. Almost all CT productions include actors appearing on our stage for the first time -- maybe this show it will be your turn!
Below are details of our upcoming auditions. We hope to see you at an audition soon.
