Glenbrook Players is located at the corner of the Great Western Highway and Ross St in Glenbrook in the same building as the Glenbrook Cinema.

No. We are a not for profit company made up of volunteers. However, our productions are made to the highest possible standard and we aim to be as professional as possible before, during and after performances.

Glenbrook Players hosts two major productions a year in May and November. Smaller membership exclusive and community events may happen more frequently during the year.

Memberships are $35 a year. Fees help cover insurance for all cast and crew including our front of house team. Membership also means you have increased opportunities to know what is happening in the group, what performances may be coming up, and contribute to the running of the Players.

Members who actively participate in the running of a production are entitled to a free ticked to that performance.

Absolutely! It is important to note, we are not an acting school, however, we will help you along every step of the way through your on-stage journey should you be cast in a production.

Please note – Whilst all information on this page is correct, audition processes are completed at the discretion of each individual director.

While we take each production incredibly seriously we try to make auditions as calm as possible! Auditions are usually held in the theatre and are usually open auditions. We try to make the audition process as friendly and welcoming as possible. It’s important to note, the director wants you to do well! Auditions can be a long process so make sure you free up your night (or day) if you intend on auditioning.

No. However, the information night is a chance for you to get to know the play and the characters. If you are really wanting a part, come along as it will help.

Not usually. However, it is best to prepare. Costumes are a choice you can make if it helps you to feel in character during auditions. You will usually be allowed to read off a script during auditions. “Cold reads” can backfire so prepare, prepare, prepare!

The director will usually advise this at the information night and during auditions. It is generally within a few days following auditions. The director will call, so keep your phone on!

Absolutely! We are always in need of backstage crew and front of house teams.

This depends on each production. Generally, there is a need for stagehands, a stage manager (dependent on experience), props managers, costume assistants, sound design, and lighting assistants. The list goes on! If you are interested in participating backstage, let the director know. They will inform you where help is needed

Rehearsals are usually on Monday and Wednesday nights from 7 pm-10 pm at the theatre. There are two Sundays in the lead-up to the show for technical and dress rehearsals. Please note, additional rehearsals may be called at the director’s discretion.

It is vital you let the director know when you may not be available. We are flexible to a degree. There are certain dates however that cannot be adjusted such as dress rehearsals, technical rehearsals, and show dates.

Send a message to us through the website or through social media and we will get you in touch!
