Our spring 2025 show, Dangerous Adventures, presents three tales of adventure! See its show page for more about the three audio dramas.
Read on for information about auditions and the form to sign up for an audition slot!
Auditions will be Monday, February 3, and Tuesday, February 4, 2025 at Guild Church in Somerville. Scroll down to learn how to sign up for a slot and audition.
Parts will be available for both voice and Foley roles.
Performances will be on two weekends from April 25–May 3, 2025.
IMPORTANT: Since performers will be in close proximity on stage and at rehearsals, we are requiring performers to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19.
PLEASE NOTE: The Post-Meridian Radio Players is a community theater group and is run by volunteers. Our performers are not paid.
How to Audition
Now
- Then, click here to sign up for an audition appointment, fill out the form, and submit it.
- If you have submitted the form correctly and one of the time slots you requested is still available, you will get email confirming your audition appointment. (This is sent by a human being who has a day job, so don't worry if it doesn't come right away. But if it doesn’t come within a day or so, contact us at auditions@pmrp.org. You can also use that address to contact us if you have trouble submitting the form.)
- Then check our Audition Documents folder on Google Drive and (when they're posted) read over the synopses and character descriptions for all three plays and think a little bit about what you’re interested in — the voice roles listed there are available, but there also positions for sound-effects performance, tech crew, and various other things. (The synopses and character descriptions have not been posted yet, but will be shortly.)
Before your audition
- Print out (or download to your tablet) the audition sides from our Google Drive Audition Docs folder. You’ll want to look over and/or rehearse them before your audition, and it will be very helpful if you can bring your copy to the audition (although we’ll have a few extra copies printed out). They haven’t been posted there yet, but they will be shortly.
- Then fill out this auditionee information form, which lists things like which roles or radio-plays you're interested in, schedule availability, whether you're interested in Foley performance roles or behind-the-scenes positions, and so on.
- Then, show up for your audition at the scheduled time! Please bring your filled-out paper audition form and availability schedule. Good luck and have fun!
Some Things to Know
- Voice rehearsals will generally be on Tuesdays. For the first few weeks, Foley and voice actors will be rehearsing separately, with Foley rehearsals on Mondays. After the first three weeks or so, voice and Foley will rejoin and rehearse together on Tuesdays.
- The audition process involves two different online forms one to schedule you for an audition slot (the appointment form) and another one (the auditionee information form) that directors and stage managers will use when casting, contacting you about the results of your audition, scheduling rehearsals, and so on. They’re not interchangeable.
- If you show up for an audition without the auditionee information form filled out (or the sides), we’ll probably have a paper copy you can fill out and we can transcribe, or a QR code for the form so you can fill it out on your phone. However, it saves time and trouble and makes the process go more smoothly if you submit the form before your audition. (It also helps demonstrate to the directors how responsible and resourceful you are!)
- Similarly, if you don't have sides printed out (or on a tablet) we'll have some copies auditionees can borrow, but it's best if you can print them out or have them on a device you can comfortably read from.
- Walk-ins are welcome, but people with appointments will take priority. If there are no-shows during a given hour, we will fill those slots with walk-ins. Any remaining walk-ins will be auditioned at 10pm. It helps the directors tremendously if you sign up in advance, though.
