What they are looking for
Santa Fe Playhouse is casting Equity actors for its 2027 season, which includes August: Osage County, Tick, Tick... Boom! and John Proctor Is the Villain, under artistic director Anna Hogan. For August: Osage County they need, among others, performers in their 60s and 70s for the Weston parents and in their 40s and 50s for the eldest daughter, with intimacy and stage combat. In-person auditions run December 5 to 10 at the theater's rehearsal studio by appointment, and video submissions are accepted. It is paid: Independent Theatre Contract with a $496 weekly minimum. For the full season, prepare 32 bars of a contemporary musical theater song and a 60-second contemporary monologue. Apply through the original listing.
Castina's tip
If you only want the straight plays, prepare two contrasting contemporary monologues, since that is what they ask for August: Osage County and John Proctor Is the Villain. For the musicals, choose a song that shows a different color than your monologue, and bring a marked track if you are not using the accompanist. Request a slot early: they take up to five business days to reply. If you cannot travel to Santa Fe, the video option is a real alternative.
