Hey guys! So, who here has done the Strawhat auditions before and who is doing them this year? I barely turned in my application on time so I was just notified today that I am on the website. We'll see if I get an audition. So I was just seeing if anyone could fill me in on the details! What it's like on the days of the auditions and just any of your experiences...

ummm....first rule of acting never pay anyone to let you audition or to put you on a website. I have heard many scam like stories about straw hat watch out. Updated On: 3/2/04 at 09:09 PM

I have friends who have gotten plenty of legit gigs through Straw Hats several years in a row.

a few of my friends have gotten jobs from straw hat auditions while some got no offers what so ever... those who did get jobs said all the regional theatres were excellent and even allowed salary bribes :o)

They charge $28 to process your application and put your headshot, resume, and info on their website. Then, if you get an audition, there is a $40 audition fee. This isn't like Options Talent agency that charged you $300 to have your model headhsot posted on their website.
