auditions: November 22-23

Welcome! Thanks to everyone who got in touch about the open auditions on November 22 and 23. We have received a huge number of applications and we are now carefully working our way through them. Unfortunately we are already at the limit and have to close this call.

But… but… I really wanted to audition

We would have loved to have met you but unfortunately we have only limited time and we already need to get back to the folks who have been in touch with us. Please keep an eye on our newsletter and/or instagram for further calls in the future. Sincere thanks for your interest.

I applied. When will we hear more?

We’re working as fast as we can. We hope to be in touch with everyone who applied by October 31. We’re hurrying, we promise.

How will the auditions work?

We’ll be in touch soon to confirm the exact time and place (the auditions will be in Amsterdam in any case). Auditions will be informal. We’ll tell you a bit about DSL and answer any questions you might have. Then you’ll read a few short texts with at least one other actor. The whole thing will take 30-40 minutes.

Do I need to prepare anything?

Yes, but nothing very time consuming. We’ll send full details closer to the time.

Do you pay? Is there any chance of profit shares? Can DSL make me rich?

Downstage Left is run entirely by volunteers as a community venture. Key to our mission is making sure our tickets are affordable. We’ll never say never but it’s unlikely we will be in a position to pay anyone any time soon.
