CCT Open Auditions

Scripts can be checked out or reviewed at the Majestic Theatre business office during regular business hours.

Click here to fill-out the Online Audition Information Form

But I've never auditioned before!  Not to worry - click here to see what the Fiddler on the Roof auditions looked like, or check the Wizard of Oz auditions.  Most directors are pleased to answer any questions you may have (contact information is usually included in the audition notice) and can provide you with a script to look over before the auditions.  Check out the audition notices (links on this page) -- you'll usually find a plot synopsis and summaries of the principal roles.  

Can I get involved "behind the scenes"?  Even if you're not interested in being in the spotlight, you can be part of the action.  You can help with publicity, posters, scenery, sets, costumes, makeup, props, lights, ushering . . . the list is endless. Check out our Volunteer Opportunities.

What's in it for me?  Fame, fortune, and fun . . .  well, okay, fun and maybe a little local notoriety!  Corvallis Community Theatre is a non-profit, all-volunteer operation.  Actors and crew members usually receive complementary tickets to preview nights, an opening night celebration after the performance, and often there's a cast party.  Costumes are generally provided by CCT for the duration of the show.  You may need to purchase an individual make-up kit or shoes.  

I bet all the good parts are taken?  Not at all . . . CCT has a "no pre-casting" policy, that means all roles are available during the time a show is auditioning. If you have a part that you are interested in, make note of it on your audition form or speak to the director.  

 You can be a part of live theatre in Corvallis!

The Story:

Written in 1991, and set in John Barrymore's old apartment in New York City, the play follows successful television actor Andrew Rally as he struggles with taking on the dream role of Hamlet, dealing with a girlfriend who is keeping a firm grip on her chastity, and playing host to the ghost of John Barrymore, who, clothed as Hamlet, has come back to earth for the sole purpose of convincing Andrew to play the part. Barrymore proves to be very convincing.

But a Hollywood friend shows up offering Andrew a new role in a television pilot, with a potentially large salary and fame. Andrew is forced to choose between Shakespeare, whom his girlfriend loves, or television, where he is loved by millions.
