Audition notices are posted in the Backstage West trade paper in the Los Angeles area. You can also receive casting notices through our actor email list. Auditions are generally held five to six weeks prior to a production's opening night.

Theatre Operation
The Glendale Centre Theatre relies solely on ticket sales from its shows to cover the operating expenses that theater requires. For this reason, the GCT operates on a volunteer basis for half of its employees. Actors volunteer their time as performers, and in return we make every effort to provide a respectable theater environment with outstanding production quality. At the end of each show's run each actor will be given a gas stipend.

Values and Ethics
The Glendale Centre Theatre was founded over 50 years ago to provide family entertainment. This is our niche in the live theater arena. Accordingly, shows are selected to meet the trust and expectations of our audiences.

Rehearsal Schedule
Rehearsals are generally Monday through Friday from 7:30 to 10:30 p.m. with Saturday rehearsals at the discretion of the production staff of each show. Specific rehearsal times and dates are communicated to the performers during the audition and at the beginning of the rehearsal processes.
