At The Darling Theatre Company, our ensemble trains in the exact professional rehearsal environment expected of actors preparing for live performance.  Each rehearsal is built on trust, curiosity, discipline, diligence and collaboration, helping actors grow naturally while bringing the play and their characters to life. Roles will be delegated after the audition process, and actors will be able to develop their characters using all the techniques provided during the rehearsal process and experience the true nature of working as part of an ensemble in a professional company.

Join us for an 8‑week, 136‑hour rehearsal intensive designed to deepen your craft and take you from the amateur to the professional end of your work. Through full‑day ensemble training, you’ll develop work ready for the stage and for industry audiences. The program includes six live performances, a recognised professional credit, and the opportunity to share your work with invited casting directors, directors and other industry guests.

Includes:


• 136 hours of ensemble rehearsals and actor training across 8 weeks.
• Six fully staged performances with meaningful stage time and audience experience.
• A professional credit under The Darling Theatre Company.
• Industry exposure through invited guests at rehearsals and performances.
• Two individual 1:1 coaching sessions (valued at $99 per session)
• Full creative support, direction and production guidance throughout the intensive.

A Brand-New, Saucy & Hilarious Premiere 

The Darling Theatre Company proudly presents the very first production of a bold new comedy written by Joshua Sasse. Wickedly sharp, deliciously cheeky and packed with laugh-out-loud moments, this original work launches our 2026 Ensemble Season in unforgettable style.

Rehearsals commence the week of 30 April 2026, with performances running 19th - 22nd August 2026
