Auditions & Play Submissions

Auditions
WJT holds two types of auditions: general and play-specific.

We hold general auditions once every two years, usually in June or July, for both Equity and non-Equity actors. For actors who have auditioned for us in the past, it is not necessary to schedule another general audition. Actors are free to submit their resume and headshot at any time, and it will be kept on file. For our auditions, we request two 2 minute monologues of contrasting style.

WJT will be holding General Auditions in May or June 2012.

With play-specific auditions, WJT will publish notice of which plays and parts are being cast. While we feel it is of vital importance to cast locally, some productions lead us to audition and cast in other cities as well. For our 2011-2012, all play-specific auditions are complete.

If you have any questions about auditioning for WJT, please contact WJT Associate Artistic Producer, Suzie Martin, at (204) 477-7515 or info@wjt.ca.

Play submissions
As of October 1, 2010, WJT requests that playwrights interested in submitting their work for production consideration send a letter of inquiry, along with a synopsis, to WJT's Associate Artistic Producer, Suzie Martin, at info@wjt.ca.

Please note that WJT typically produces plays with a cast size of five or smaller and has a focus on producing Canadian playwrights.
