About Our Regional Theatre Companies Database

With thousands of regional theatre productions produced across the country each year, it can be overwhelming to break into this industry, especially if you are not currently in a major market or just graduated from a theatre college or conservatory. The Up-To-Date Actor makes it easy for you to find regional theatre productions that you are right for in your local market as well as nationwide. Our database helps you narrow down the vast pool that is the world of theatre companies so you can find the ones that are producing shows for which you will be a good fit. The tools we provide will help you learn about new productions before auditions are even posted so you can stay ahead of the curve and gain a competitive edge. Our database is for everyone, beginners and seasoned actors alike. Those who are new to the business may find work at a regional theatre company that’s close to home where they’ll be a local hire. Others who have been in the industry for years and may be more willing to travel could expand their reach and look beyond their current location. Whatever your needs and capacity, the Up-To-Date Actor’s Theatre Company Database is here to support you.

Understanding Theatre Companies

Every theatre company has its own unique specifications as for how they announce and cast an upcoming production. Unlike Film & TV, regional theatre companies are often more receptive to direct submissions from new talent. With a wide ranging pay scale, regional theatre can provide budding talent with ample opportunities to gain experience and credits prior to making a move to a major market such as New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, or Chicago. As always, the more specific you are with your type and the better understanding you have of the roles you are right for, the greater success you will have from your submissions and auditions.
