The You Connection cast is open to all ages from 10 years old to adult. We prefer actors with a moderate to high degree of experience, and we generally will not accept newcomers, since YC is a professional and very elite environment. All performers receive compensation.

 

NOTE: You Connection is a professional organization only and performers are expected to display high standards of excellence in performance, conduct, and reliability.

​

Actors must audition to be accepted. We do not audition for single productions; we hold a one-time audition for actors seeking to join our cast roster. We already have an extensive number of performers, so we are only seeking actors who have a heart for our vision and who specifically want to be a part of You Connection.

​

We have two cast divisions:

​

RESIDENT PERFORMERS are paid part-time on a monthly basis and participate in all YC productions throughout a season (summer to summer). Actors who are already in the YC Cast are welcome to be considered for Resident Performers. Resident Performers make up a variety of ages from youth to adult. This is a part-time position with the requirements of any part-time job.

 

Comp begins at $1200/month for 18-older, $500/month for below 18's; Resident Performers are required to commit to our three in-house theatre shows, our summer film shoot, plus a few small web series video shoots in between. Commitment to You Connection is very workable on a part-time basis, since our rehearsal times and other appointments are very efficient (see Actor Guidelines). Compensation can increase over time for Residents.

​

THE YC CAST allows actors to select which productions they are available for throughout the season; deadlines are given for each production. Commitment details are outlined in the Actor Guidelines. Comp is $800/per project for 18-adult, $500/per project for 10-17-yrs-old.

Be sure to take a look at our Actor Guidelines
