Auditions are open
The Loft Theatre Company is casting The Waves, directed by Julien Rosa. There are six on-stage roles, usually in their 20s to 30s although age is flexible, plus an offstage seventh character, Percival. The actors are on stage most of the time.
- Rhoda: the main narrator, solitary and self-doubting.
- Jinny: a radically honest, free-spirited socialite, aware of ageing.
- Susan: strong and determined, building a family in the countryside.
- Bernard: chaotic and language-focused, writing to impress and to control emotion.
- Neville: a sensitive, romantic poet, drawn to Percival.
- Louis: Australian, an outsider who becomes a businessman.
A reading takes place on Monday 23 November 2026 at 7:30pm, to hear the text read aloud, ask questions and decide whether to proceed to auditions. The audition is on Sunday 29 November 2026 at 2:00pm, with parts of the text performed alongside other auditionees; text is provided on the day with time to read and prepare. Casting is open and neutral, and auditions are open to everyone. Joining the company is free. Rehearsals begin in late March 2027, and performances run from 5 to 15 May 2027.
