So, you think you want to join WUT, huh? Well there are probably a few things that you should know before you apply. We have cast guidelines that will be given to you when you start your audition. However, here is some information you need to know about cast before you apply. Just because we have a show once a month doesn't mean that this show is easier to do than those on a regular schedule. At WUT we have creative license and the technical capabilities to pretty much do anything we want. This normally means more rehearsals. Being located in the West Valley boondocks also creates extra work to promote our show.

Cast philosophy: It is the goal of this cast to provide a show that is not only entertaining to its audience, but also its casts members. This cast will strive to use this show to bring forth all the talents and creativity of its members while preserving the shows integrity. The motto of the cast is, “The individual members’ growth and development are just as important as the growth and development of the cast itself.”

Cast goal for the moment: “The cast's mission is to be cutting edge, and push the envelope of Rocky Horror entertainment while still having the show be fun.”

Auditions: Our auditions for all roles will go through a six show audition, after which time you may become a full member.

This cast does NOT have a primary system. If you are a stellar performer you do NOT have to wait behind those who do not contribute to the show. Remember talent is not the only factor that will decide these things. We expect members to help the show before, during, after and outside the show.

Cast dues: cast members and auditioners may be subject to paying a cast due (fee) which can change at anytime.

If you are still interested after reading this we suggest you apply to what we think is the most innovative RHPS around. Well, we want to know everything about you before we start drinking with you. The following application is full of questions you probably will think are pointless, but every question has a reason for it. So, even though some of it is funny, realize that your answers will be taken seriously when evaluated. Just be honest and enjoy yourself.

NOTE: If you are on another cast and apply for WUT, there is an automatic thirty day waiting period after you resign from the other cast before we will negotiate whether we'd be interested in using you.
