Casting is a key part of the artistic process behind each production. We aim to cast the most interesting and exciting performer for each role.
We actively look to work with native Scottish artists and artists based in Scotland where possible, supporting Equity’s #CastItHere campaign. We also seek to promote artists from diverse backgrounds and cultures. We are interested in reflecting and expanding the world we live in upon our stages, and fundamental to this desire is finding artists who embody that world in all its aspects. Reflecting diversity sits in conversation with our desire to cast locally.
Our shows are cast by the director of each production, with the support of our creative team and our Theatre General Manager. Information about open casting calls will be shared on our website.
If you are a local professional actor or artist from Perthshire, Angus or Fife we would love to hear from you. Please get in touch and we will endeavour to keep you informed of any relevant casting calls and, where appropriate, we will invite you to audition.
The Directors regularly attend shows throughout Scotland and the rest of the UK in order to see and meet performers and have an in-depth knowledge of the industry. We are happy to attend drama college showcases as well as productions. To let us know about a show you will be performing in, please use the contact details below.
Please contact us at casting@perththeatreandconcerthall.com
Please include your Spotlight link if you are on Spotlight, and a CV and headshot under 1MB in size if not.
We seek to tell great stories which are locally and universally relevant.
Sometimes those stories are specific to our local area and developed in collaboration with our local community.
In the past four years we have commissioned and produced the work of Scottish and Scottish-based writers Kieran Hurley, David Harrower, Morna Young, Zinnie Harris, Rona Munro, Oliver Emanuel, James Ley, Sarah MacGilvery, Ros Sydney, Rob Drummond, Martin McCormick, Anita Vettesse and Gabriel Quigley.
We support the work of many more writers through development and presentation. Where we can, we will support the exploration and showcasing of new work.
If you are a local professional writer raised or currently living within Perthshire, we would love to hear from you. Please get in touch, and we’ll have a chat.
Perth Theatre and Concert Hall is invested in new writing, but our capacity as a team is limited, which is why we’ve started a dedicated script development programme.
If you’d like to send us a script, please send us information about you as a writer – where you are based, details on any previous work and what stage you are at with your script. We will read scripts and aim to give constructive feedback but cannot promise any further development unless we feel we can genuinely engage in the possibility of a future relationship with that work or you as a writer. We will prioritise Scotland based writers. We will endeavour to always acknowledge receipt of your enquiry. We are unable to provide feedback on synopsis or anything other than full length scripts.
Please contact Matthew through scripts@perththeatreandconcerthall.com
