Unified Local Auditions will be held this year at Mill Mountain Theatre's Waldron Stage on June 29 from 1pm to 4pm.
You MUST reserve an audition slot in advance. All Hollins Playwrights Festival casting will be done from these auditions, so in order to be part of that casting pool, you are required to audition. Representatives from local theaters have also been invited to attend for their own casting purposes. Contact Gwyneth Strope (

If you would like to audition, prepare a one-minute contemporary monologue (from 1950 to now) that is either comedic or dramatic. Though preferred, you do not have to be memorized.
Please fill out the following google form and Gwyneth Strope will contact you to schedule an audition time:

Everyone who auditions will also be photographed on the day of the audition by our archive photographer, so that we have both your photograph and a record of what you looked like on the day of the audition.
All requests for audition slots must be received no later than June 26!
If you have any other questions or don't have email and would still like to audition, please call Gwyneth Strope, the Hollins Theatre Producing Manager at 540-362-6313.
