KWLT’s ultimate theatrical competition is back for its twelfth year, and we’re looking for actors who want a quick hit of theatre: one week from auditions to performance. Sound crazy? It should — that’s why we call it March Madness! We welcome actors with any level of experience, from first-timer to veteran.

Auditions will be held on Saturday, March 8 from noon to 4pm at our theatre (9 Princess Street East in Waterloo). Auditionees will deliver a short monologue (30–60s) and take direction from our production teams. You’re free to come with your own monologue prepared; if you don’t, we’ll have a selection of monologues you can chose from waiting at the theatre. Overall the process should take ten minutes at most once you’re in the room.

All actors cast in a team will be expected to be available for the evening of March 14 as well as all day on March 15, for tech and dress rehearsals along with the performance proper. Other requirements during the week of March Madness will be up to the individual teams to schedule.

Walk-ins are always welcome, but we encourage you to sign up in advance. You can also use this form to volunteer to sign up for a team in an off-stage capacity, or if you’d like to audition but can’t make it out on the 8th.
