Open Auditions

Auditions

Red Octopus Theatre Company's auditions are open to the public, and appointments are not necessary. Please arrive on time and let the attendant know if you will need to leave early. Callbacks are by invitation only.

Red Octopus Theatre Company is committed to inclusivity and does not discriminate with regard to gender, race, age, size, or ability. Most characters we encounter currently are on the binary and are written with he/him or she/her pronouns, and you will see that in the descriptions we provide. But however limiting the descriptions are, our casting seeks to be as inclusive as possible and we invite gender non-conforming, genderqueer, transgender, and non-binary actors to submit for the roles they most identify with. We will also list race/ethnicity when specific to the character, but are otherwise seeking all races and ethnicities. Please let us know if you have any questions, concerns.

Never miss another audition...

All are welcome at our auditions...

We encourage any/all in the community who may be interested in theatre to join us for auditions, as we love to see new talent and welcome new folks to our stages. Our auditions are open to all, because we want to see our coastal theatre community grow!

AVAILABLE ROLES...

Wadsworth (M 30-50) heaviest line-load
The respectable butler, he has been placed in charge of the evening events by long -ime employer, Mr. Boddy. Major driving force in the play, needs excellent comedic timing.

Yvette (F 20-30)
Young French maid who is not directly involved in the evenings events but has been swept up all the same. Naive and easily frightened.

Miss Scarlet (F 30-40)
A woman of business who knows what she wants and how to get it. Seductive, comfortable with using men to her own needs.

Mrs. Peacock (F 50-70)
Batty and out of touch, she was the height of the social scene a few decades ago. The wife of a “great Senator” who will do anything to keep her (somewhat faded) life of privilege.

Mrs. White (F 40-60)
Classy and stoic, widow several times over. Her icy facade hides a depth of burning rage.

Colonel Mustard (M 40-60)
Befuddled military man. Thinks he is quite something around the ladies (he is not).

Professor Plum (M 30-50)
A researcher for U-NO WHO. An intelligent type if not exactly a gentleman.

An anxious man carrying a heavy secret. Timid and unassuming.
