With day jobs, classes, schedule conflicts, and tech week, it would seem that working actors have enough to deal with without having to try to track down and decipher cryptic audition notices. "WNTD: 3M2FNETYPE 4 MLTIETH PRD OF BFT N TH PK CT: KEN." What?

To the rescue: TheatreInChicago.com is has announced the launch of their Chicago Theatre Auditions page, a comprehensive listing of the Equity and Non-equity theatre and film auditions in the Chicagoland area. After numerous requests, TheatreInChicago.com is making this feature available, adding to its database of current and upcoming shows, news, reviews, and much more, making TheatreInChicago.com a true one-stop site for everything Chicago theatre-related.

The audition listings are continuously updated and easy to read and include all the details an actor needs to know, such as audition material, time commitment, synopsis/character breakdown, and locations and contact info. They are sub-divided into Equity, Non-equity, Dance, and Film listings (a non-actor Jobs heading for technicians, directors, etc. is coming soon).

As the Auditions Page is a brand new feature of TheatreInChicago.com, it is still in the "beta" stages, and improvements are constantly being made. In addition to the auditions and jobs postings, also planned is a "Resources" page for actors to find headshot photographers, classes, coaches, and all the other networking tools they need to succeed.

In addition, check out the other features of TheatreInChicago.com, including reviews, news, maps, podcasts, and upcoming shows. With all this and more, TheatreInChicago.com is Your Source for What's On Stage in the Chicago Area.
