Auditions

The Atlanta Shakespeare Company (at The Shakespeare Tavern) holds auditions several times a year. Apprentice Company auditions happen in early Spring. Check back for specific dates and information.

We hire professional Atlanta-based performers. You may mail your headshot and resume to:
Casting Director at The Shakespeare Tavern®

Audition notices are also posted with www.atlantaperforms.biz and on the Equity Hotline.

The ASC is also represented during the Unified Auditions. Go to www.atlantaperforms.biz for more information.

We always recommend this formula for being successful at the Tavern: come see what we do. If you like it, volunteer, show your enthusiasm any way you can. Talk to our directors. Our approach to Shakespeare is unique and does require an immersion into our philosophy and aesthetic. If you haven't seen a production here, it is important that you do. There's no way to begin to know what we're really about (and how you can contribute) until then.
