AUDITIONS!!!!!!!!!!

IT'S TIME TO AUDITION FOR HAMMERKATZ SKETCH COMEDY

Everything you should need to know about the auditions SHOULD be all here in this post. We hope everyone comes to check it out!

We will be bringing on a group of writer/performers, if you want to write for Hammerkatz but don't want to perform, please come to the audition and let us know you'd rather be a writer. If you want to be a performer, we will still be asking for a writing submission, however, we will take that into account.

Two things are required for the audition. One, we are asking for a writing submission from everyone. This writing submission (which should be comedy) can be anything ranging from as little as two one line sketch premises, or as much as 5 pages of scripted material. We're really looking at the basic ideas of what is submitted which is why we're happy to accept simple one line premises, however, if you've written before, we'd love to see a sample of your best stuff... just please try to limit it to five pages. Please either bring this to the audition, or email it whenever you're ready to hammerkatznyu@gmail.com.

The second part of the audition will be a performance audition. It will be a cold reading of two old sketches, you'll have some time to familiarize yourself with the sketches before the audition.




The audition dates and times are as follows:

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 16TH
8 PM - 10 PM
KIMMEL ROOM 804

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 17TH
8 PM - 10 PM
KIMMEL ROOM 912

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 18TH
10 PM - 12 MIDNIGHT
KIMMEL ROOM 907

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 19TH
10 PM - 12 MIDNIGHT
KIMMEL ROOM 909



Please pay attention to the fact that the times are different on different days, and that each audition date is in a different room. Please send the writing submission NO LATER than midnight on Friday, September 19th. You only need to come to one audition date.

During the weekend following Friday, September 19th, we will be holding a fast round of callbacks and will be immediately bringing people onto the group by the following week.

Any other questions, comments, or really anything you want to talk about, email hammerkatznyu@gmail.com

Thank you so much and I hope to see you all at the auditions.
