Opportunities:
WRITE OR AUDITION FOR MAKE THE CUT – INFO BELOW.
Make The Cut is the hottest competition for actors and writers seeking an opportunity and a platform to showcase their talents.
Some of the UK’s most talented emerging artists are selected to compete in front of a voting audience and an industry panel. Hoping to make the cut, writers submit their work and the top monologues are shortlisted for the competition. After a first round of auditions, actors are chosen to go head to head, performing the monologues in a series of rounds, in which the winning actor and writer is chosen!
WINNING PRIZES! Supporting rising talent in moving forward with their careers!
Actors: £156 towards Equity membership (Trade Union for professional performers) or a term’s free membership to The Actors Club run by Director’s Cut Theatre Company.
