Buffalo Theatre Ensemble is always looking for new talent and we accept headshot/resume submissions throughout the year. While auditions for specific productions are by invitation only, we hold general auditions at least once every year.

    Out of Town Actors: The need for actors not based in Chicagoland depends specifically upon the demands of each individual production. Auditions are held in Glen Ellyn.
