Bordello Theatre are seeking 12 performers to join us for a very special theatrical experience for Halloween 2015.

Show runs 26th – 31st October in Preston.
We are seeking 12 key performers to take the vital roles of:
Cypher Security Detail x 5 – These are elite security personnel who have been asigned to the survivors and tasked with getting their group to the extraction point. As a performative function you will be required to lead a group of audience through a set route while they encounter various sets and situations. You will have a great deal of experience in immersive work, good improvisation skills and be an exceptional performer.
Secret Roles x 5 -These roles are vital to the immersive nature of the production. You must have high levels of acting ability and be able to improvise freely and invisibly.
The Activist – This male single role acts as a transition character that gives the audience information about the story through a monologue and then through questioning and conversation.
Jamie – Jamie is a Lab Technician for Pharmalie Industries. This is a male or female character. Jamie has witnessed many disturbing things and as a result has been mentally scared. Jamie’s role is to advance the story by delivering a monologue and then through questioning and conversation.
These are paid roles.
