Casting call 2026

Perchance Theatre is holding auditions for their upcoming season!

We are looking for actors who are excited to spend their summer months performing great plays in the great outdoors.

Located in beautiful Conception Harbour, Newfoundland and Labrador, (40 minutes from St. John’s), Perchance Theatre is an outdoor theatre known for their innovative productions of classical and Newfoundland plays.

The productions, as well as the space, are physically demanding with sword fighting, physical comedy sequences and generally rushing about on multiple levels of our outdoor stage.  It can be hot, it can be cold, but there will almost always be flies. We also have a lot of fun, with a bbq on site and swimming hole nearby.

Fast facts about the season include:

  • We are casting for three shows.
  • Some roles have been filled.
  • The season starts in mid to late June and is an 11-week contract.
  • Remuneration range is derived from the CAEA DOT Tier 1.
  • Transportation is the responsibility of the employee.
