TUESDAY

An ordinary Tuesday turns really, really weird when the sky over the school playground suddenly rips open. Pupils and teachers are sucked up to a parallel universe, whilst a new set of people start raining down from above. 'Us' and 'Them' must come together to work out what is going on, and how they can get things back to how they were.

Alison Carr's play 'Tuesday' is funny and playful, with a little bit of sci-fi and a lot of big themes: friendship, family, identity, grief, responsibility – and what happens when an unexpected event literally turns the world upside-down.

Written specifically for young people, the play formed part of the 2020, 2021 and 2023 National Theatre Connections Festivals and was premiered by youth theatres across the UK. It offers opportunities for a large, flexible cast of any size, age and mix of genders.

Audition Information

To audition for this production, please contact our team to book your place. Everyone who wishes to be involved needs to attend on audition day for the group session, and then those wanting to be considered for lead roles will be taken out of the session to perform a solo audition. Everyone gets a role if they attend on audition day, regardless of if they do a solo audition or not, but those who do solo auditions will be prioritised when allocating roles.

This play is great because it has unassigned speaking lines that we can allocate to whomever we think suits them best! Also, any of the roles can be played by any gender, so there's opportunities for everyone. To do a solo audition please prepare a monologue using the information in the audition pack below.
