DALLAS THEATER CENTER General Audition Information:

Dallas Theater Center is a LORT (League of Resident Theaters) regional theater. Our

contracts are LORT B, C, and D. Dallas Theater Center functions under the rules set

forth by Actors Equity Association governing LORT theaters.

We welcome Union (AEA) and Non-Union actors. Only AEA members may make

appointments. Non-Union actors will be seen when no AEA members are waiting to be

seen.

Dallas Theater Center maintains a resident acting company. When casting productions,

DTC looks first to the Diane and Hal Brierley Resident Acting Company to fill roles. DTC

also maintains a relationship with Meadows School of the Arts at SMU. As part of this

relationship DTC often casts students from these programs in mainstage productions.

Additionally, DTC casts actors from the region and nationally for a variety of roles.

Auditions for these roles occur on an as-needed basis throughout the year.

Dallas Theater Center works under the League of Regional Theatres (LORT) contract

with Actors Equity Association (AEA), the union of actors and stage managers. The

union determines the number of Equity and non-Equity actors cast in each production.

Local equity and non-equity general auditions for the upcoming season are scheduled

once per year, usually in late spring. Information about local generals will be posted on

our website and on the Actors' Equity website as well as through our local media.

Local children’s auditions are held on a show-by-show basis. Information about local

children’s generals will be posted on our site as well as through our local media prior to
