Send you CV to arts@lyrictheatre.co.uk if you would like to be considered for a particular show.
- 6. Do you employ actors who don't have agents?
Yes. Submit your CV to arts@lyrictheatre.co.uk for consideration.
- 7. Do you employ actors who have not trained at a recognised Drama School?
Yes. However we would expect their CV to reflect relevant acting experience to be suitable for the role.
It is rare for the Lyric to employ actors who have not accessed drama school training or have relevant experience. Occasionally these roles do come up and provide a wonderful opportunity for an actor.
