Production Casting
The Seattle Rep artistic staff, in consultation with directors, invites individual actors to read for roles in specific productions. These auditions are held throughout the year on an invitation-only basis in Seattle, and also possibly in New York, Chicago or Los Angeles as the project warrants.
General Auditions
Seattle Rep participates in the annual general auditions organized by Theatre Puget Sound. These auditions are one of the most important opportunities for Seattle Rep's artistic staff to see and stay current with the work of local actors. The dates for general auditions and procedures to apply are announced at least one month in advance on Theatre Puget Sound's site.
Seattle Rep also holds a yearly general audition for Equity actors. Audition appointments are made on a first-come, first-served basis to Equity members, and there may be remaining slots available for Non-Equity actors. The auditions (and sign-up procedures) are announced two weeks prior through Actor's Equity Association and on Theatre Puget Sound's site.
Submitting Your Headshot
Seattle Rep maintains detailed records on Seattle-area actors. We keep a file of the photos and resumes of actors who have worked at and/or auditioned for the theater in the past two years.
It is important that we have current information. Any time you change your telephone number or union status, please send us an updated headshot including your name, address, telephone number, and email address and send it to casting@seattlerep.org or:

Seeing your work
Members of the Seattle Rep artistic staff try to see as many theater performances as possible. If you are cast in a production in the Seattle area, please send us an invitation email. Time permitting, one of the artistic staff members will attend. We regret that it is impossible for us to see everything.
Out-of Town Actors
Throughout the year, Equity actors visiting from out of town are welcome to request an audition appointment by emailing casting@seattlerep.org. Auditions are scheduled on a time-available basis.
