Audition-not-Audition Drop-Ins

Audition-not-Auditions for the 2027 Season

630pm-930pm Mondays

30 November, 7 December, 14 December

Attend one, attend part, attend all!

The Mill has offered a range of classes, courses and drop-in opportunities over the years. In 2026, we moved from monthly or quarterly drop-ins to a 10-week Monday night program, with sessions embedded in rehearsals for Mill productions. This gives participants the chance to train alongside artists working on professional productions and, importantly, some performers have been cast through the Monday Drop-Ins.

It’s worth distinguishing these sessions from our Audition-not-Auditions. While the format and atmosphere may be similar, Audition-not-Auditions are unpaid, workshop-style sessions where performers can be considered for a production. No one has ever been asked to pay to attend one.

We've just announced our 2027 season to newsletter subscribers and, as always, the door is open to new talent. Construction of the Human Heart is currently the only fully cast production, so there are plenty of opportunities to get involved.

Come along to any, some or all of the Monday Drop-Ins. No booking or payment is required. On the sign-in sheet, you can indicate which productions and roles interest you, and scripts will be available in the dressing room to read. We look forward to seeing you in the room!

Tickets & Attendance

No booking or payment is required for the sessions which are openly about casting and auditioning people. This has always been the case for the last four years.

Location

The Mill Theatre is in Building 3.3, the Screencraft and KeepCo building which is a short walk from Capital Brewing. There are two easy ways to approach the Theatre:

PARK in P3 at the back of the precinct. From there you will see building 3.3 which has a large Screencraft sign. The public entrance is just up from that sign (not underneath it!). Once inside, walk about 5 metres and the theatre is to the right, next to Mojo Guitars.

WALK from Capital Brewing or the Less sculpture into the KeepCo building, pass Ramen Daddy and at the end of the corridor we are on the left. 

Parking

All parking in the precinct is free with several accessible parking spots in all the parking locations. The best spot to park is P3 at the back of the precinct. If you park elsewhere please be warned that signage and way-finding around the precinct is extremely difficult. Arrive in plenty of time to possibly get lost, possibly be in a bad mood!
