Audition Form Information

Latest Info...

Everyone who wishes to audition for Spud will need to fill out the online audition form to be considered for a casting opportunity. Please note that you will need to upload a clear, portrait picture of yourself as part of the application process.

If you are from Durban, Pietermaritzburg, Cape Town or Johannesburg we will accept your form. If you are from another region, please upload your one minute audition clip on our YouTube site.

As there are many applicants, not everyone will get selected to attend a regional audition. If we would like to audition you, we will send a confirmation email with an allocated audition date, venue and time.

Please note... Only one application form may be submitted and that these audition forms are for the teen roles only !!

The first auditions will be held in Durban
Date: Sunday 9th & Monday 10th August


We will be responding to the Durban applicants first. If you are from the other regions, your confirmation emails will be sent only after the Durban auditions, please be patient.


DEADLINE for Durban Application
PLEASE have your form submitted to us by
Thursday
6th August, 14h00pm.


Any Questions can be posted on this blog and the Spud Team will respond as soon as possible.

Good Luck !!!

  12. are we allowed to audition for more than one character? if so, is it recommended that we apply for the character that most fits our portrait profile?
    on that not, from the limited experience i have had in casting the right actor for the right role, one thing i have learnt is that it is far better to find a good actor to play the real thing than to find the real thing to act well.
    i'm just saying that. you're the bosses. i'm sure you'll find enough good actors anyway. just keep that in mind though..

  13. Auditions in Joburg will hopefully be mid September... we will let you know the deadline closer to the time.

    At the audition, you will only be allowed to audition for one role. It is recommended that you apply for the part that is most suited to your looks & personality as it may be more natural to act that way... However it is your decision for which role you try out for.
