Website The Conspirators

Conspire with us!

Pay Rate: $200 stipend for the cast, $150 for U/S
Audition Date and Time: Wednesday, September 17

The Conspirators are looking for high-spirited comedic actors to fill out the cast of our fall production of DUCK SOUP, adapted for the stage from the CLASSIC Marx Bros. movie of the same name. We’re also looking for understudies. Rehearsals begin RIGHT AWAY and show runs 10/30 to 11/23. Lead and secondary/ensemble roles are available, some are already cast.

The Conspirators perform in a high-energy stylized comedic “mode” reminiscent of Vaudeville, neo-commedia dell’arte, and Bugs Bunny cartoons. Dare to be stupid! Oh, and we love to cross-dress, so you may play ANY-gendered character. Do you sing? Bonus!

Auditions are THIS COMING WEDNESDAY, 9/17. Please submit your headshot and resumé ONLY if you can commit to the show.

Questions? Ask!
