WE ONLY ACCEPT ELECTRONIC SUBMISSIONS. ANY UNSOLICITED SUBMISSIONS RECEIVED BY MAIL WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.

ACTORS

Please send an email to info@RoustTC.com attaching your current headshot and resume. All attachments must not exceed 500Kb in TOTAL. Please don't use ultra high resolution JPEGs, they don't make us see you any better than a low resolution JPEG. Your resume should ideally be in a Word document. If you attach an image of your resume, please make sure it is legible. Whichever way we receive your electronic headshot and resume (image/s and/or Word document) please don't exceed the attachment total. Any submissions that exceed the total limit will automatically be deleted.

It also might be nice to say in your covering note why you want to work with us...

PLAYWRIGHTS

We accept new, previously unproduced plays from both literary agents and directly from playwrights as unsolicited manuscripts, with some limitations. 'Unproduced' means not previously seen on a stage in a professional capacity, it does not include being previously produced as a staged reading.

Please send us a cover note, via email, along with a brief synopsis and your best 10-page selection from the script (in a Word document). If the material interests us, we will contact you with a request for the complete script. Please don't email a complete script in the hope that we might, by some crazy chance, print it and read it. We won't, primarily for two reasons: we just don't have the time and we try and care about the environment by saving paper. If we discover you've sent the complete script your submission will be deleted.

A word to the wise, we only like to receive plays that fit our mission. Keep in mind that Roust focuses on important social matters. This doesn't mean we only accept political plays or dark brow-furrowing dramas, though we happen to produce those as well. Comedies, love-stories, experimental pieces; if it's a social 'hot-potato', we want to read it. We need you, and so does theatre!
