The Sirrah Sisters are back for their five year anniversary!

This year, our performance of Much Ado About Nothing for Brockley Max will take place at the lovely The Brookmill from Friday 9th June 7pm, Saturday 10th June at 2pm and 7pm and on Sunday 11th June at 2pm and at 7pm.

We are currently casting for our Benedick, Claudio and Don Pedro. If you are female or non binary and think you could be a good fit, please send a 1min Shakespeare monologue/extract to [email protected] by midday 13th April. Rehearsals will take place in South East London, throughout April and May.

The Sirrah Sisters are a profit share company, our ethos is about working collaboratively, listening to each other and finding the fun. We are a down to earth bunch, committed, caring and hard working and would love to meet you.

We particularly encourage applications from performers who are BIPOC+, LGBTQIA+ and performers who are neurodiverse or disabled (please note, unfortunately the performance space is not wheelchair accessible). If you feel comfortable in discussing your neurodivergence or disability, please do let us know how we will aim to accommodate you as an individual.

Underneath is written ‘swipe for more info’ next to an image of Shakespeare’s face. The next four images describe individual casting calls in the comedic style of a dating application. They each describe the characters of Benedick, Claudio and Don Pedro, the roles we are currently casting.
