Hi, Kurt, Domoney from Broadway kids auditions here in New York City.

Today I'm here to tell you where you can find Broadway auditions for kids for free.

The Three Best Resources for Finding Broadway Musical Auditions for Children

Here are three of my favorite resources right now where you can find auditions for young people:

  1.  Playbill is a great resource for all kinds of Broadway audition information. This free website is a one-stop-shop for anyone interested in the theater industry. From New York shows to regional and international stages, this site will keep you up on all things theatrical!  If you go into the jobs listing section, you'll see a bunch of current auditions. You can even filter into young performers to make it easier to see all the current auditions in one place. 

  2. Actors Access is the ultimate resource for actors who want to be discovered. With more than 43,000 projects posted annually by Casting Directors and 1 million+ database entries already compiled during its 15-year history as an online membership site; there has never been a better time or way to find your next big thing! Actor's Access is actually the most important website to focus your efforts on. It's a great resource for all kinds of acting and theatre news. You can create a free profile on the site which can link to your agent and manager if you have one.  And there are literally tons of auditions, especially for young performers. Actors Access is the only site that allows actors to submit directly to casting directors' projects!  So get your Actors Access profile set up as soon as possible.

  3. .Backstage is an established go-to for any and all things theater. It has jobs to keep you busy, events that are worth attending (and catching), plus an online job board with free listings! Plus if you are interested in applying through their subscription service then don't worry - it only costs a few dollars per month. You can search for auditions and filter by age range, and you'll see a ton of different options come up. 

And that's really it! Just get started with these three resources and you will be well on your way to finding your next amazing Broadway audition.

So go out there, start searching, and good luck!
