Final Audition Call - Monday 17th August!
The Haunting of Hill House has some incredible characters for you to get your teeth into, including the deeply compelling lead role of Eleanor, so why not check out our audition pack (link in comments) and join us on Monday evening for our final audition!

Eleanor is not just a role—she’s the heartbeat of the story. Complex, vulnerable, emotional, and intensely dynamic, playing Eleanor is an incredible artistic challenge and a dream role for anyone looking to push their boundaries on stage.

We’ve already seen some incredible talent in our auditions so far, and we’re so grateful to everyone who has come out to share their passion with us!

For further information on any of the roles, both onstage and offstage, drop us a message!

Audition Information!

Interested in getting involved in our next production?! Below is a link to take you to our audition material and information pack.

Our next production is The Haunting of Hill House, 10th – 14th November 2026 at Taunton Brewhouse.

Join us this November for one of the most terrifying supernatural thrillers of all time. A truly evil old mansion has remained empty and silent for years until the arrival of Dr Montague, an investigator of supernatural phenomena. He and his team delve into its disturbing history. Goaded into a fatal fury, the spirits of the house make themselves known.

Auditions are held at our HQ – The Place, Wilfred Road, Taunton. TA1 1TB at 7.30pm on the following dates:
• 10th August - Open Auditions
• 12th August - Open Auditions
• 17th August - Open Auditions

This is a genuinely unsettling piece with a great range of characters. The set will be a technical challenge as well. Please do come along as we will need people to be involved off stage as well as actors themselves.
