General Notes on Auditioning for East Lane Theatre Club

East Lane is an amateur club. No payments are made for performing.
If this is your first time at East Lane, please also bring with you details of your past experience,
a photo with your Full name, address, phone number and email so we can contact you later.
Auditions are as friendly and informal as possible, you will be asked to read from the provided audition pieces, either singly or in groups, as well as moving around our stage.
There is no need to learn the pieces provided, and we do not ask for any learnt pieces to be performed.
We do ask that if cast you can make all the rehearsal & performance dates, although it is sometimes possible to accommodate pre arranged holidays. Please bring with you dates you cannot make.
To perform in a production you must be a Full paid up Member, and pay the casting fee £20 on the first rehearsal (which covers your script, insurance, tea & coffee etc)

Jenny,her husband Sam and new born daughter, have recently bought a house that they are slowly renovating.
For several nights, at exactly 2:22 am, Jenny hears the sound of someone moving around the house and a man's voice crying, often via the baby monitor in her daughter's bedroom, and so becomes convinced the house is haunted.
Sam having been away on a work trip, insists there are logical explanations for the noises.
The couple hosts a dinner party for Lauren, an old university friend of Sam's and Ben, her new boyfriend.
After discussing the strange noises, Jenny persuades the others to stay up until 2:22am to see what happens.
This production has just completed a sell out UK tour following a successful West End debut in 2021.
It has been released for amateur production for a limited time only.
Grab your chance to participate in a really scary play.
