As You Like It - Audition Information

Chiltern Shakespeare Company operates an open audition policy for all of its productions. We will offer the role to the best candidate for any given role. 

We also actively encourage the participation of children and young people in all productions that we do. Although they may not be main roles, we like them to be involved in crowd scenes etc.

Auditions for these parts are not held when the main part auditions are held. Rather those juniors who wish to get involved will meet the director and production team, and will be introduced to their allotted roles later in the rehearsal run, most likely from mid April or early May.

Audition Pack - As You Like It 2026

Our director, Henry Dickinson has put together an Audition Pack which should answer many questions – but if you have any other questions please email info@chiltern-shakespeare.org.uk

Audition 1 will be on Monday 12th Jan 2025 at 8.00pm at CSK Church

Audition 2 will be on Wednesday 14th Jan 2025 at 8.00pm at High March School

More information is contained in the Audition Pack.

There is parking available at both venues.

Audition Form

All auditionees will need to fill in an audition form.  Some copies will be available, however please print off a copy, fill it in at your leisure and bring it with you to your audition.

Audition Form As You Like It 2026

It is important that you provide accurate information regarding your availability over the rehearsal period and performances.  If you are awarded a part, the production team will assume that you are available for all Monday evenings and Wednesday evenings and those selected Sundays on the rehearsal schedule. (Initial Schedule to be added shortly before the read-through).

The rehearsal schedule will only call those members to a rehearsal who are needed that night, however where there is illness or unavoidable absences by those called, we would like to be able to rehearse other parts of the play.
