Drama Department’s Open Call: Mega Auditions 2025-2026

New Students: Auditions for the academic year’s entire Main Stage Season (4 shows) take place in the fall Week 0 during our Mega Auditions (or "Megas"), where you'll have the chance to audition for all the Main Stage directors at one time. 

We encourage everyone to audition, even if you're unsure of your chances, because:

• You'll be seen by several directors who may cast future roles;
• It's a great way to demonstrate your unique skills;
• Auditioning is a vital skill to practice!

Megas are often your first introduction to faculty and other department members, which can positively impact your opportunities throughout the year.

Please read all the information about the 2025-26 Season carefully. 

Visit the Mega Auditions website for more details: https://drama.arts.uci.edu/auditions. 

Audition slots are available on a first-come, first-served basis. To secure your time, please complete the UCI Mega Audition Form 2025-2026 (Digital), which includes selecting your audition time.

Please arrive at least 30 minutes before your scheduled time to sign in and submit your audition materials. Check in for your audition at the Dance Loft, next to Studio 4, Rm. 209, closer to the Bren Events Center.
