We'd love to have you on our stage.
Here's how!
We have several ways to perform at What If Theatre!
INDIVIDUALS
Our house ensemble accepts guest players for every mainstage show run. We alternate between open auditions and offering invitations to members of the improv community who we think would excel at specific formats. Our upcoming shows include 'disturbed' (October), an as-yet-unnamed November/December holiday Hallmark rom-com, and 'Swipe', a look at at modern dating (February).
​
We will soon be holding auditions for the 2024 holiday show AND a family show to be done in the style of choose-your-own adventure stories, aimed at kids aged 5-12. Auditions will be held at the theatre on Sunday, October 13 and Tuesday, October 15. Signup information can be found here.
​
TROUPES
If you have an improv troupe that wants to perform on our stage, apply for a one-off or repeating time slot. Click here! We are actively looking for folks for these slots!
​
SHOW PITCHES
We also always want improv show pitches! A show pitch needs to have a marketable tagline that is understandable for those who have not seen improv before. Examples include: “A Tale of Two Genres: An Improvised Dickens Musical,” “I'm Home: A Dysfunctional Family Christmas.” or “Sixty Minotaurs: Legendary Mockumentary.” (Yes, we've been part of all these shows.)
We are willing to help provide rehearsal space and some budget to produce shows, if needed. You can pitch a show if you have just an idea, if you have a fully cast production ready to go (or anywhere in between!) We can help get you from idea to production. Things we would particularly like to hear pitches for: seasonal/holiday shows, genre or narrative shows (in a genre/style that you LOVE and can deliver on), musical improv, family show ideas and/or shows that would specifically pull in kids or teens, gamey shows that you think are patently ridiculous but super fun… you name it. Pitch it - here!
