What should be on my resume?

• Print
• Email

Your resume should be a single page PDF (8.5x11) document that has your name and contact info.  If you are a performer, you should also include your age, height and hair color.  Then make a list of your experience with the most recent items first.  The list should include:

• The year
• The role you played or job title
• The name of the show or event
• The group or school that produced the event
• The name of your director or supervisor

At the bottom list any special skills, training or awards you've received.  These might include dialects, acro or circus skills, languages, musical instruments, equipement and / or safety training or what ever else we might find valuable and unique.

Also include at least one reference (two is better). The reference should be a person that can answer questions about your theater skills and what it is like to work with you.  A non-family member is best, but use what you have. Teachers (current and past) are often willing to be references. Ask permisssion from the reference before you put down their name, and list their email and phone number. We will contact them if we want to know more about you.  

If you have more than one page of stuff to list - don't.  Only list the most recent or important and stop at one page.  

Performers - If you have a photo or headshot, please attach it to your resume (as page two).  This is not requried if you are doing an inperson audition because we'll be taking your photo on your audition day.
