Auditioning at the Garrick could land you in a mainstage play like this: Shawshank Redemption

Please refer to the Garrick Actor’s Guide for all information about auditioning for acting roles in our 2024/2025 Season at Altrincham Garrick Playhouse. 

In addition, each production has a dedicated audition pack, which will be uploaded to our website about 4 weeks before the auditions, and which will include information about what to prepare, character descriptions and more.

A story stranger than fiction that blurs the boundaries of tabloid scoop, court case and soap opera, The Wagatha Christie Trial explores privacy and celebrity in modern Britain.

On 9 October 2019, Coleen Rooney publicly accused Rebekah Vardy of selling stories about her to The Sun. The four words "It's.......... Rebekah Vardy's account" sent shockwaves across British and global press. Nobody could have expected the social media scandal to grow so large.

On 10 May 2022, the "Wagatha Christie" trial commenced. Over seven days, the libel court case saw Vardy and Rooney remark on each other's lives, with much of it documented heavily in the press. 

Only a handful of people witnessed what happened behind the closed doors of this footballers’ wives drama and now you can too in this hilarious (and slightly tacky) court room comedy!

We are a diverse theatre and we welcome auditionees of all ages (above the age of 18) and all genders, ethnicities, sexualities, disabilities and races, to enrich the work of the production.

For more information, please check out our Audition Pack below!

Written by John Steinbeck
Directed by Joseph Meighan

“Guys like us, that work on ranches, are the loneliest guys in the world. They got no family. They don't belong no place...with us it ain't like that. We got a future. We got somebody to talk to that gives a damn about us.”

George and Lennie are migrants with a dream; a dream of a better life, a place where they can belong, where Lennie feels safe and George can be somebody. But this is the Great Depression, not many dreams come true in a time where a few have plenty but most have nothing. When the friends take a job on Curly’s farm, tragedy unfolds leading to a heart-breaking decision.

John Steinbeck’s classic novel is more than 80 years old, but with themes of economic migration, racism, prejudice and exclusion it remains a parable for our times.

A story of enduring friendship and hope.

We are a diverse theatre and we welcome auditionees of all ages (above the age of 18) and all genders, ethnicities, sexualities, disabilities and races, to enrich the work of the production.
