Get Ready to Audition: Mid-Year Double Bill Comedy!
Our mid-year production season is just around the corner, running from 12th to 22nd August, and we
couldn’t be more excited! This year, we’re presenting a double billing of the hilarious Little Grimley plays by
acclaimed playwright David Tristram. Known for their farcical humour and witty ensemble chaos, these
plays have delighted audiences across New Zealand—and we can’t wait to bring them to our own stage.
We’re calling for auditions on Thursday 4th and Friday 5th May, and to help you get a feel for the season,
there’s an information evening on Tuesday 28th April at 7pm. Whether you’re an experienced performer or
trying theatre for the first time, this is a fantastic opportunity to get involved in a production full of laughs,
energy, and memorable characters.
This is our second major production of the year, and it’s extra special because it marks the directorial debut
of Abby James, who will be guided and supported by Bridget McNamara. Together, they’re ready to create
a fun, professional, and lively theatre experience that we know our audiences will love.
If you’re looking for a chance to be part of a fast-paced, high-energy comedy, meet new friends, and stretch
your performance skills, this is your moment! Come along to the info evening to learn more, and prepare
for auditions—your next stage adventure awaits.
We’re looking for:
4 actors (stage age 40+) – 2 male, 2 female
Backstage crew for those interested in marketing, stage management, props, and set
