Auditions for The Generation Ship
October 22 & 24, 2026
About The Generation Ship
Written by Abby Auman, Jason Phillips, Katie Jones, and Quinn Terry
Directed by Quinn Terry
The Generation Ship is a look into humanity’s potential future, through snapshots in the lives of those living on a ship which has left a destroyed planet Earth, to seek out new possibilities for humankind. The journey is so long that those who started it won’t see its end on a new planet - but their great, great grandchildren (hopefully) will. Through a series of monologues and scenes, ranging in feel from darkly comic to poignant to surreal, we explore what it might be like to be flying on board humanity’s last hope.
This is an interactive show — the audience will engage with at least one performer.
About Auditions
Auditions will consist of small group sessions with cold readings of monologues and sides. Each person auditioning will also be asked to spend about 45 seconds to tell a story without speaking.
Please note: characters are open in terms of age and gender, but we're currently only casting folks who are 18+ as of January 1, 2027.
