Ever wonder why certain actors get cast? Curious about what the audition process is like or what directors are looking for? This is an opportunity for audiences to see first-hand how auditions and casting directors work! Actors will prepare monologues and will be given “adjustments” and feedback from Amphibian Stage’s own Jay Duffer! Former New York actor and director at Amphibian several times over, Jay Duffer’s career in the theatre industry spans decades, from Off-Broadway to new works to overseas productions. Jay currently teaches Directing for the Department of Theatre and Dance at the University of Texas Arlington, is a member of Actors Equity Association, and is an Associate Member of the Stage Directors and Choreographers Society.

This event is a part of Spark Fest, our annual Summer celebration of groundbreaking and exciting new art.
