AUDITIONS AND CASTING
There is an audition fee of £10 if you are not a current paid-up member of Cygnet Players. This can be paid at audition in cash, or by card, or please let us know if you wish to make a bank transfer in advance. If you are successful and are cast, you must then become a member of the society and your £10 audition fee will be deducted from your show fee. If you are already a member, you will not need to pay an audition fee.
Membership is £35 a year if you pay as a one-off, or only £30 when you set up a standing order. This lets you audition for both our musicals within that year, and our annual play. It also gives you members’ rates to our social events.
DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION
We are committed to making this an inclusive and diverse production which showcases the talents of our society and which gives each and every member of the cast a moment to shine. As such, there will be opportunities for singers and dancers of all genders, ethnicities and ages!
