The Audition

June 21, 2024

7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
  • Bowery Theatre and St Albans Community Centre, 33 Princess Street, St Albans VIC 3021

The Audition is a moving insight into the protocols and powers that permit or deny entry into our country and to our stages, examining parallels between actors auditioning for work and refugees seeking asylum. The Audition honours those whose lives are spent awaiting entry.

★★★★½

“Political theatre doesn’t get much better than this… Irine Vela seamlessly directs The Audition to create electrifying theatre… The work shimmers, miragelike, between asylum seekers claiming protection and actors preparing to audition, with cognate politics and
piercing resonances” – Cameron Woodhead at The Age

Food provided pre-show by our local refugee communities of Brimbank. Each session is followed by a Q&A.

Recommended age: Suitable for ages 15+
