Audition Information

How can you audition for our next season?

Main auditions for the 2009-2010 Season will be held in connection with the Olympia Audition League, a consortium of local community theaters in Olympia. These auditions are for actors 16 years and older.

Information about these auditions can be found on the Olympia Audition League's website.

Actors under the age of 16 can audition for parts in the first two Olympia Family Theater productions (Charlotte's Web and Best Christmas Pageant Ever) at a special "callback" audition sometime in late August. Make sure you are on our mailing list (or send an email to the theater: info@olyft.org) to stay in touch.

How can you see the scripts for next season?

OFT's 2009-10 scripts(except the musical) are available on reserve at the Downtown Timberland Library in Olympia. They are not available for check out.

Interested in helping tech? Drop us a line and let us know.
