eCallboard

We have a great director, Michael Unger, working at our theatre who has come up with a terrific melding of e-networking and actual utility for theatre casting - auditionconnection.com. The site is free for "Casting Members" - theatre companies, producers, and directors, and carries a nominal fee for performers posting a profile on the site.

The site is great and speaks for itself. It was launched late last fall and has a handful of teensy bugs being ironed out - but this is the future of casting, especially for people working at a distance and on a budget. It takes the guesswork out of trolling YouTube for talent, and should grease the wheels connecting talent with work.
