Each season we hold a Newcomers Meeting where the directors will tell you more about their plays and the audition process. It’s a great way to find out more about the season and of course you can quiz the directors and committee too. Whether you’ve been hanging out with KDC for years, or you’re completely new to us, come on down!

Our auditions are free to attend. There’ll be committee members on hand to help every night so we promise you’ll be well looked after!

Please come along on whichever days suits you but do bear in mind that the last night is usually very busy so we’d advise you come on an earlier night if you can.

Recalls will be on the following Saturdays following the initial auditions, i.e. 17 and 24 January.

Director pitches for Spring 2015

With rehearsals now underway and winter drawing ever closer we’re now thinking about pitches for the coming Spring. The deadline is the end of October.

There is no theme for the season but there are some things we ask you to consider:

  1. How do you imagine your show looking? Think about the size of a stage in comparison to what you have in mind?
  2. Cast size – We like to make sure we give our members as many opportunities to perform as possible. Ideally plays with 8-14 roles are good – 7 is an absolute minimum unfortunately – anything north of 15 might be hard to fit backstage
  3. Cast ratio – We like to present as many roles for male and female actors equally as much as possible, and to that end, we try to find a balance in the roles. If the play has 9 men and 1 woman, it wouldn’t be something we could consider… If some of those male roles are not gender specific, it might be.
