Video Auditions

If you’re not able to attend any of the auditions listed above but are still interested in submitting yourself, we accept video auditions.  In addition to your resume, we would like to see two 90-second monologues, one classical/Shakespearean and one of your choice. YouTube links are preferred.  Please be sure that your video submission is NOT set to “private,” as we won’t be able to view/process your audition. As an outdoor drama, we search for candidates with solid training in vocal projection. We do not use microphones. Do your best to demonstrate your command of a large open space.

We will do our very best to review all submitted materials. If we require any other information, we’ll reach out to you directly. Thank you for your interest in our company!

Please send all materials to producer@tecumsehdrama.com
