Preparation! Get the material early and practice! One of the key traits we look for is confidence.
Make sure you are practicing your fundamental skills on all aspects of equipment and movement. We are looking for performers who can exhibit a high level of visual proficiency. Start moving NOW! ALL performers should exhibit a high degree of flexibility. Adaptability is a huge element of performance.

In the COVID environment, we can endeavor to help facilitate the housing process for Visual Theater members. Often, this will involve housing with local members.

PLEASE NOTE: For open audition weekends, if necessary, you will need to make your own housing arrangements.

After auditions, there are rehearsals every weekend for the duration of the season (mid-October - April).

PLEASE NOTE: This is subject to change depending on changes in practice venues, additional performances, etc. But we will do our best to keep the schedule page up to date and accurate.
