------------------------------
Now in its third year, the TAB General Auditions are set up to eliminate the need for individual actors to take separate auditions at a range of theatre companies while allowing them to be seen by more than 40 professional theatre directors at a single audition.
The $5 audition fee was initiated in order to eliminate the need for each actor to bring between 40-50 headshots and resumes to the audition for distribution to each attending director. The fee will be used for TAB costs of digitally transferring the headshots and resume to each director, via electronic media, thus saving the actors money.
