We don’t have any auditions currently scheduled. Typically, auditions are held 6-8 months ahead of a show opening.
Generally, you must be 18+ to audition. CDT does 8 shows a week, Tuesday – Sunday, with matinees on Wednesdays & Saturdays which typically interferes with most school schedules.
Kids are auditioned separately from adults and on a show-by-show basis. (Not every show calls for kid actors.) Auditions are announced on this page and on MinnesotaPlaylist.com. Child roles are generally double-cast to minimize disruption to school schedules.
Yes. Email your headshot, resume and vocal/dance reels (optional) to Nick Haug (nhaug@chanhassendt.com). Your materials will be put on file for any upcoming replacement work.
CDT does not typically budget for actor housing.

A union contract permits us to hire a very small percentage of non-union actors. Auditions are held for both union and non-union actors a few months prior to each CDT production.
