Casting — General Information
- Horizon accepts headshots, resumes and video links from actors who are located in Atlanta or who have Atlanta housing year round.
- We appreciate link(s) to any video of your stage work you can provide – scenes or monologues. We prefer 3/4 or full body shot video so that we can see you in a theatrical context rather than a film context. You can also include a link to your reel, but any theatre video is better. Also include a brief letter of interest that tells us something about yourself and what brings you to Atlanta.
- We hold individual auditions for each show in our season which are publicized through AEA and Broadway World.
- If you would like to be considered for a particular show, you may send your headshot, resume, and letter of interest, and we will do our best to call you in for that show. But we have a small staff, so if you see a posting about auditions and you have not heard from us, submit your information as indicated on the posting.
- Please note that Horizon Theatre Company does not offer local housing and therefore rarely uses out-of-town actors.
- Horizon is a professional theatre company that hires both Equity and non-Equity performers on an SPT6 contract.
