CASTING CALL - CHARLES DICKENS WRITES A CHRISTMAS CAROL (DECEMBER 2022)
Our wildly popular holiday show from 2021 is BACK! We are looking for volunteer performers to audition for our chorus of carollers!
Audition Requirements
One song (performed a capella) of your choosing. These auditions are meant to be a relaxed and fun experience so choose a song you like to sing (it does not have to be long! A verse and chorus would be fine). Can't think of anything? Sing us a bit of your favourite Christmas carol!

Play an instrument?
Let us know! And, if possible, bring your instrument and play something for us!
I have never auditioned before!
Please do not worry! Prior experience is not required. This will be a casual audition with lots of opportunity to ask questions. We mostly just want to get to know you!
I am interested in being considered for a small speaking role
Great! Let us know when you sign up for your audition time and you will be sent something to prepare/read for us (in addition to your song).
If I am cast, what is the time commitment?
The performance runs from December 8-17, 2022. You must be available for all performances. Click here to view the calendar. Rehearsal dates are currently TBD, but it will be 4-6 weeknights in November followed by daily evening rehearsals December 5-7. If you have any questions, please ask them at your audition!
I would rather send in a video - is this possible?
This is absolutely acceptable and encouraged! When you email to sign up for an audition, indicate that you would prefer to send in a self-tape and we will send instructions.
How to sign up
Email us at info@theatrebaddeck.com indicating that you would like to audition and if you have a preferred day/time. We will respond with your audition slot time and any additional information you may need to know.
