GENERAL AUDITION NOTICE

Theatre Newfoundland Labrador is hosting general auditions for our 2027 season and beyond!

TNL operates the Gros Morne Theatre Festival in Cow Head, a summer repertoire festival that consists of up to 8 productions running from May to September. Every season we employ an acting company of up to 12 performers who are cast in multiple productions that run throughout the summer. TNL provides shared accommodations in Cow Head for the duration of every contract and covers travel expenses.

In addition to our summer festival we also have fall/winter projects that include new play development workshops, touring, and one-off engagements. Even if you aren’t available for a summer contract, we would still love to hear from you! We’re also happy to host short meetings with directors, designers, and playwrights who want to share their craft with TNL’s artistic leadership. Please indicate this within your submission.
