Auditions for Tut Uncommon

Please review the available slots below and click on the button to sign up. Thank you!

Theater Company of Lafayette will be presenting Tut Uncommon: A Play Festival Commemorating the 100th Anniversary of the Discovery of King Tut’s Tomb.  We’ve commissioned seven playwrights to each create a short play loosely inspired by this historic event. We are weaving the scripts together into a dynamic night of theater filled with mummies, ancient curses, lost loves, and PBS pledge drives gone awry.

Theater Company of Lafayette is an award-winning theater with a strong history of producing dynamic and entertaining new work.

We will be auditioning for more than twenty roles in seven short plays. Adults of all ages, genders, and ethnicities are encouraged to audition. In addition, we are looking for two actors between the ages of 12 – 18. We are an open and inclusive group! Come play with us!
