2024 LAUNCHPAD EMERGING ENSEMBLE
YOUNG ARTISTS (Year 7 – Year 11)
HotHouse is calling young actors from Year 7 to Year 11, who are interested in learning how to create a full-length production within a professional rehearsal process.
If this is you, consider auditioning for our 2024 LaunchPad Emerging Ensemble at HotHouse Theatre!
HotHouse Theatre’s LaunchPad Emerging Ensemble is a term-based, by-audition drama program focused on the skills development of emerging performers, preparing them to launch toward their chosen disciplines.
Prioritising curiosity, connection and play, artists will begin the process of discovering their craft through exploration of rehearsal room process, performance, theatre-making techniques and introduction to text.
In 2024, LaunchPad artists will be working toward a production of a new Australian play for public presentation in October.
HotHouse will run a 3-day Audition Workshop for LaunchPad in the January School Holidays | 17–19 January @ 10am-4pm.
There is no charge to participate in the audition workshop but participants must be available to attend for the full 3 days.
It will be a gentle audition process weaved through 3 days of fun drama games and activities – a great experience on its own!
