Auditioning for The Atlanta Shakespeare Company at The Shakespeare Tavern/Apprentice Company Info.

The ASC holds general auditions in the late spring/early summer.

2008-09 General and Apprentice Company Auditions May 11-13, 2008

Please check our website in April or May 2008 for more information. Audition notices are also posted with www.atlantaperforms.com, on the Equity Hotline and on the Yahoo Groups Atlanta Theatre Mailing List.

The ASC is also represented during the Unified Auditions in April. Go to www.atlantaperforms.com for more information.

We always recommend this formula for being successful at the Tavern: come see what we do. If you like it, volunteer, show your enthusiasm any way you can. Talk to our directors. Our approach to Shakespeare is unique and does require an immersion into our philosophy and aesthetic. If you haven't seen a production here, it is important that you do. There's no way to begin to know what we're really about (and how you can contribute) until then.
