Bethesda Repertory Theatre is comprised of a Company of Artists who believe the stories they tell, our beautiful mess, our lives--the holistic communal experience, is what theatre means to them. It has the power to invoke, exorcise, become a catalyst for change, understanding, acceptance, and, at times, makes us uncomfortable; palatable stories are not told here.
This is a new form, a new generation of theatre.
Those Actors who identify with this artistic manifesto are invited to audition.
Open Calls are posted here, our social media pages, and third party sites (Actors Access, Playbill, Actor's Equity)
All Actors are welcome regardless of race, color, religion, sex, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, or Actors' Equity status.
Interested and prospective Artists are encouraged to participate in or observe in our monthly workshop, The Rehearsal, that is facilitated by Ms. Mumford. During these sessions you will work alongside and have an opportunity to converse with: Company Members, Creatives, and Bethesda Executives. Not only are these Workshops intended to ignite and support creative synergy, on a consistent basis, it also serves as an effort to dismantle the gate keeping, and inaccessibility that is a common theme in the theatre community, and offer an equitable space for professional and novice artists, alike, to work together.

One of the exciting volunteer opportunities that is always available. We are seeking enthusiastic front of house staff to help us with our productions. We are in need of ushers to greet audience members, check them in, and guide them to their reserved seats. They also sell concessions and merchandise, and connect with the guests about all things theatre. Minimal training required, and as a perk you'll get to watch the shows for free!
