Upcoming Auditions

Due to scheduling issues, rehearsals for The Life and Death of King John begin the Monday after the close of An Ideal Husband. We usually have much more time between shows and this has caused us to change our audition procedures for this show only. Instead of one night of open auditions, auditions will be by appointment only (appointments are now being taken). Contact the director, Richard Bell at (303)442-1415 or bells@theupstartcrow.org for an appointment. Since auditions will be over a long period, actors who have not performed in an Upstart Crow production should submit a headshot (you can get it back after casting).

We invite actors to attend open auditions for all of our regular shows. To receive reminders of upcoming auditions, click here to be added to our audition mailing list.

Actors are requested to download and fill out our audition form to bring to the audition. This will include a listing of all your conflicts from the start of rehearsals through closing night, including weekends. Resumés are appreciated. Headshots are not required (except as described above).
  • The Life and Death of King John, directed by Richard Bell, (303)442-1415, bells@theupstartcrow.org; See the notice above; rehearsals begin Monday, September 27. Actors are requested to prepare a one minute reading from Shakespeare.

  • The Philanderer, directed by Joan Kuder Bell, (303)442-1415, bells@theupstartcrow.org; Tuesday, December 7, 2010; rehearsals begin Monday, January 10, 2011. Actors are requested to prepare a one minute reading from either Oscar Wilde or George Bernard Shaw.

  • Julius Caesar, directed by Richard Bell, (303)442-1415, bells@theupstartcrow.org; Tuesday, March 8, 2011; rehearsals begin Monday, March 21. Actors are requested to prepare a one minute reading from Shakespeare.


All auditions will be held at 7:30 pm at The Upstart Crow Studio. Actors are requested to bring a resume and prepare a one-minute reading from a similar play (not necessarily memorized). Shows are cast the night of auditions. If you have any questions, please contact the director or info@theupstartcrow.org or call 303-442-1415.

Rehearsals are Monday-Friday, 7:30-10:00 PM at the Upstart Crow Studio (at the theater starting a week before opening).

All actors in Upstart Crow productions receive a small stipend. Not enough to pay your rent, but it might cover your gasoline.

Boulder's Upstart Crow Theatre Company is an actors' company and actors are expected to help with tech work, especially with move-in on the Sunday before opening and strike on closing night.

Like all theatre companies, we have a commitment to our ensemble members. Still, we always cast actors from outside our company. Act with us often enough and you'll gain the benefits of membership.
