ALL FUTURE AUDITIONS WILL BE ANNOUNCED HERE. 2009-2010 auditions are tentatively set for October for The Wild Party and May for Evita. In general, New Line does not cast anyone under 17. New Line is always looking for intelligent singing actors who are willing to take risks onstage. For all auditions, performers are asked to bring a prepared theatre song, with printed piano music for our pianist (no tapes and no a cappella). NEW AUDITION POLICY: If you have performed with New Line Theatre during the last eighteen months, you don't have to audition. Instead you just have to contact artistic director Scott Miller before the last night of auditions to tell him that you want to be considered. On the other hand, if you want to be considered for a role that's very different from what you've done for us before, then you are more than welcome to audition and show us how perfect you are for that role.For most New Line shows, rehearsals are on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday evenings from 6:30 to 10:00 p.m., and for some shows, also a few Sunday afternoons, plus every night the week the show opens. Rehearsals are at St. Mark's Episcopal Church in St. Louis Hills. Performances are at the Washington University South Campus Theatre, 6501 Clayton Road, just east of Big Bend. Performers will share a guaranteed 10% of box office receipts. Call 314-773-6526 or email NewChaz64@aol.com for more information. No appointments are necessary. All performers should arrive for the audition before 7:00 p.m. New Line is a non-union professional theatre company and is always very eager to find a multi-racial cast.

All auditions for future shows will be announced on this page. Generally, New Line holds auditions for each show during the run of the previous show. All details will be posted here when they become available. Do I need an appointment? No, just show up at 7:00 p.m. (unless otherwise noted). What if I have rehearsal schedule conflicts? If you have one or two schedule conflicts, we may be able to make accommodations in the schedule. If it's more than that, we will not cast you. What should I bring? You should prepare a song (sometimes we have preferences about what kind of song, noted in the audition announcement), and you should bring a legible copy of the piano music for our accompanist, in the key you want. Do NOT bring unattached pages. Do NOT bring lead sheet (music with only vocal lines, no piano part). Either tape the music into an accordion or put it in a binder. Mark clearly any cuts or changes. If you're bringing a published book, please break the binding ahead of time so your music lies flat on the piano. Can I sing something from the show? The answer is almost always YES at New Line. Other companies often have different preferences. Do you want 16 bars or more than that? Generally, we allow performers to sing a full verse or two, sometimes a whole song, if it's not too long. We generally find that 16 bars just isn't enough time to strut your stuff... Do I need a picture and resume? If you have those, bring them. If not, it's not a problem.
