Headshot and Resume Submissions
Submit your information to Arena Stage’s casting database! We review every headshot and resume that we receive, and we contact actors individually to schedule auditions based on their suitability for roles. Please feel free to invite us to any performances you may have in the area as well. We'd love to see your work on stage. All invitations may be addressed to casting@arenastage.org. Please do not mail hard copies of your headshot/resume.
Ushers
Arena Stage's volunteer ushers make up the largest part of the theater's team. They are responsible for the comfort, safety, and overall experience of our patrons, and are often the first face a patron sees when attending a show. Arena Stage ushers contribute personally to Arena's professional reputation by making every patron feel welcome and by doing all they can to make their time with us a pleasant and memorable experience.
Arena Stage does not accept unsolicited script submissions. Projects come to our attention through agents, our national scouting process, and our pipeline of new work through our commissioning and development initiatives.
