Audition Call: 13 Ways

Audition Call: 13 Ways

**************

We will be holding auditions for actors interested in participating with DaPoPo's summer project "13 Ways of Looking at a Madman."

**************

This is an opportunity for emerging theatre artists (male & female, Equity and non-Equity) to participate in an intensive training experience and creation process during the preparation, performance and touring of an original show. There is no fee for participation but the project will require significant time commitment, travel overseas and participation in fundraising for the project. Auditions are required from those wishing to be considered for the project
