Profit-share Actor

at Eagles Nest Theatre - Melbourne

Cosi Auditions
Eagles Nest Theatre Company - Season 1 May 9-29

General Information

We are seeking actors for our forthcoming production of Cosi by Louis Nowra. We are very happy to have secured acclaimed NIDA graduate Alan Chambers who will be relocating to Melbourne for the production.

Cosi is to be staged as part of a 3 week general public season at Northcote Town Hall. In addition to the performances at Northcote we will be touring the production to schools during the season dates. This means that there will be both daytime and evening performances.

Payment for this position is on a cut-of-the-door basis. With a number of school bookings already confirmed the production will be starting the general public season from a break even point. This means that all of the door takings from the general public season will go directly into profit share. We also anticipate that Cosi will have a broad appeal and sell well, and that the import works will bring a substantial audience with them.
