Actors & Directors Panel

WNY ACTS! Members are pleased to host a free audition workshop designed for actors of all experience levels. This unique event brings together 12 current directors from area community theaters for an open, candid conversation about what makes an audition successful. Directors will share practical insight on preparation, projection, how to stand out, taking direction in the moment, and common reasons performers may or may not be cast.
You won't want to miss this information-packed dialogue with directors from:
ACTS Community Theatre
Aurora Players
Evangola Community Theatre
Lake Plains Players
Main Street 56 Theater - Home of Batavia Players
Rocking Horse Productions
Towne Players of Ken-Ton
While this is a discussion-based workshop (no performance-practice component), actors will gain valuable perspective directly from those making casting decisions across our community theatre membership and will have the opportunity to ask questions.
