Auditions
Augustine's Lie (Read-through)
10:30, Fri 13th March 2020 at Fitzpatrick Hall, Queens' College
Lent Week 8
Hello!
We are looking for a group of 14 actors for a read-through of an exciting new script, Augustine's Lie.
This is a fab opportunity for anyone looking for a low commitment involvement in theatre!
Interested in new writing? In multi-roling? In historical plays that aren't Shakespeare (I went there)? In the intersections between religion, truth and theatre? In nice things to do at the end of term? All of the above? Cracking.
You need to be available for a practice run through on Saturday 7th March, 10.00am-2.00pm, in the Erasmus Room in Queens' College. The read-through itself will be on Friday 13th March 10.30am-2.30pm in The Fitzpatrick Hall, Queens' College.
To register your interest and for any questions, please contact Ali Bonner (acb64) by midnight, 7th February.
Can't wait to hear from you!
Contact acb64@cam.ac.uk before Fri 7th Feb, 23:59 for more details.
BAMEBRIDGE
23:00, Wed 11th March 2020 at ADC Theatre
Lent Week 8
Now in its second year, BAMEBRIDGE aims to squish as much BAME talent as possible into just one night!
GET INVOLVED:
WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR:
We are looking for acts by anyone identifying as BAME - these can really be anything - spoken word, dance, visual arts, theatre, an instrumental performance, part of a video, vlog, animation, magic, comedy - literally anything!!
The act can vary in length from 3-10 minutes
PROCESS:
DEADLINE 31ST JANUARY
1) Hmu with an email at zhar2@cam.ac.uk (with BAMEBRIDGE in the subject) with a few sentences explaining
a) What you want to perform/what talent you want to showcase
b) And why?
I will then hit you back up with an email and we will organise a meeting time to talk through your ideas further. The chat will be used to pick which acts best suit the arc of the evening.
All that would then be required is for me and some folks to see your acts a week or so prior to the night and bish bash bosh.
We are very much looking forward to reading your applications :)))

UCATT 2020: A Woman of No Importance – UCATT
14:30, Tue 1st September 2020 - Wed 30th September 2020 at various venues across China, Korea & Japan
Summer Vacation
UCATT 2020 - A Woman of No Importance by Oscar Wilde - AUDITIONS
Auditions are now open for UCATT 2020. We are a non-profit, student-run organisation representing some of the best theatrical, creative and technical talent the University of Cambridge has to offer. For the month of September we tour across the UK and East Asia performing and providing workshops in venues, schools and universities.
This year we are performing A Woman of No Importance re-set in the 1920s! With this sparkling comedy, full of Wilde’s damning satire, set just a year before the suffragette’s victory and as British migration increases, we hope to ask if our treatment of others has changed.
For more information please have a look at our audition pack - https://docs.google.com/document/d/12btJDhK6ZG36UdeiK9oNyIMpOFmPOfDmFbpotuP1Otg/edit?usp=sharing
If you have any questions, queries or concerns please get in touch with us on Facebook (Odette Baber) or email (os394@cam.ac.uk). We’re really looking forward to seeing you!

Virgin Smoker – Pembroke Players
21:00, Sat 15th February 2020 at Pembroke New Cellars
Lent Week 4
VIRGIN SMOKER AUDITIONS; LOOKING FOR ALL-NEW PERFORMERS!
Done sketch shows but never standup? Written a sketch but never performed it? Never been in a smoker before? We need YOU! The Virgin Smoker is for first times - either first time performers or for trying out a discipline you've never done before.
Before the show, we'll also be offering opportunities to get together with the other performers in groups of various sizes to try out your work before the show, or get advice about the BRAND NEW thing you're giving a go!
FOR THE AUDITION:
Auditions are on a drop-in bases, you can either bring some sample material (aiming for 2-5 mins), or just an idea to chat with us about. We're open to anything, so longs as it's new to you! Please note priority will be given to people who've never been in a smoker before.
There will be two people in the room, Jozie (she/her) and one other. If you're worried about it being intense (understandable!) let me know and we can work something out - I'm happy to talk about video auditions, auditioning in a group, or anything else to make the experience as comfortable as possible!
If you can't make either of the dates or have any questions at all, please don't hestiate to get in touch:) email Jozie jc2070 or message me on facebook (full name Jozie Meldrum).
*ACCESS: NCR is fully wheelchair accessible via a lift but is up one flight of stairs. There are gender neutral toilets adjacent to the NCR and disabled on the ground floor. There are soft and hard seats available.
