NEW House Troupe Auditions

The Comedy Arena is casting FOUR brand-new House Troupes and you can audition for one… or all of them.

This is your chance to get on stage regularly, collaborate with a dedicated ensemble, and perform in one of our most exciting specialty formats:

  • Silent Sketch Troupe – physical storytelling, character, and comedy without words
  • Puppet Improv Troupe – big characters, weird worlds, and full puppet chaos
  • Parody Improv Troupe (Improvised “Blank”) – fully improvised movies, genres, and over-the-top storytelling
  • Improvised Shakespeare – ay! Forsooth! drama, poetry, betrayal… and probably a ghost

Whether you love character work, genre play, or bold theatrical improv, there’s a troupe for you.


WHY AUDITION?

  • Perform in 15–30 minute featured sets as part of our regular shows
  • Work closely with a Comedy Arena faculty coach
  • Be part of a consistent ensemble (not just drop-in shows)
  • Gain performance experience in a fun, supportive environment
  • No cost to audition or perform

Perfect for students, recent grads, and anyone ready to level up their stage time.


HOW IT WORKS

  • Each troupe performs in scheduled shows
  • Rehearsal Expectations (2-4 per month)
  • Performance Expectations (1-2 per month)
  • Cast sizes typically range from 4–8 performers
