New Faces To Be Included in Theatre Ontario's Next Generation Showcase 2015

Celebrating its 20th year, Theatre Ontario will host the annual Next Generation Showcase on January 18th and 19th, 2015 at the Young Centre for Performing Arts in Toronto. This dynamic two-day event sees graduating theatre students showcase their talents in front of industry professionals, including casting directors, artistic directors, independent directors, producers, and agents. Many of the top theatre training programs from Ontario and beyond participate annually, but we also have a slot dedicated to NEW FACES as a showcase opportunity for recent grads from other theatre training programs wishing to pursue their performing careers in Ontario.

To be eligible to apply to "New Faces", you must fulfill the following criteria:

• You have graduated from a full-time theatre training program within the last 3 years;
• You currently reside, or plan to reside, in Ontario and are a Canadian citizen or permanent resident of Canada;
• You presently do not have an agent;
• If selected, you agree to submit 50 hard copies of your photo and resume by January 15th, 2015 to the Theatre Ontario office by mail or in person.

Please note: If you have already participated in the Next Generation Showcase in the past, you are not eligible for NEW FACES participation.

There are a very limited number of New Faces placements available.  If the number of eligible applications that are received exceeds the number of slots available, Theatre Ontario reserves the right to decide who will be selected.

DEADLINE FOR APPLICATION:  Monday, January 12th, 2015

COST:  $49 for Showcase Participation only, or $69 for Showcase plus a one-year Theatre Ontario membership ($25 discount on regular student price).

To be considered, please send your headshot and theatre resume to Erin Keating, Theatre Ontario Program Coordinator at programs@theatreontario.org.
