Auditions
Do you like to express yourself on stage, or do you prefer to work behind the scenes? Regina Little Theatre provides opportunities for actors and backstage personnel of all skill levels and experience to participate in its amateur productions.
Open auditions for main stage and one-act plays are held on the lower level of the Regina Performing Arts Centre located at 1077 Angus Street (at 4th Avenue). Auditions are held on two or three consecutive days for each play, begin promptly at 7:30 p.m., and last for approximately two hours each evening. Group readings of script excerpts take place in the presence of the director, stage manager, and other auditionees. While individuals may attend more than one evening of auditions, they are guaranteed to read at their first session only. Callbacks may be held at the discretion of the director.
It is recommended that participants arrive a bit early to complete an audition form. Acting résumés and headshot photos will be accepted but are not required.
People are also needed for a variety of production positions. If you would like to be a member of the stage crew or have an interest in set construction, costumes, lighting, sound, makeup, or any other area, drop by at the beginning of an audition session to fill in a form. And if you'd like to try your hand at directing or stage management, we'd definitely like to hear from you.

Main Stage Play
In the Cards
By Caroline Russell King
Directed by Carri Lelliott
Produced by special arrangement with the Playwrights Guild of Canada
Performances: February 13 - 16, 2019
Auditions: November 5 & 6, 2018
A reluctant psychic's powers cause her no end of trouble in her romance with the man she knows she is going to marry, even though he is fighting it tooth and nail. Sometimes, love is fated. Being a psychic isn't all it's cracked up to be. This is a homespun play with lots of humour and warmth.
Casting
1 female, 2 males
ROBERT (late 40s - mid 50s) is an intelligent man who became a good police officer by studying facts and cold, hard evidence but he became better at his job by believing in things he couldn't see -- playing his hunches. He used to be easily embarrassed at school, an athlete and a man easily frustrated with a short temper. Time has mellowed him.
BARBARA (late 40s - mid 50s) has evolved into a together, independent woman about to go into business for herself. She used to be an awkward flat-chested teenager, a hippie, and a university professor. She is, without a doubt, psychic, a fact she would have liked to have changed when she was younger if she could have.
TONY (should 'read as' 16ish) is bright, witty, and has a good sense of who he is. Peer pressure means little to him. The only one he seeks approval from is his father. He tends to be a loner and is very independent. He shares his father's childhood interest in fantasy games and skepticism.
Note: The script is written with Tony as male, but we are open to casting the role as female.
