Noah and the Deluge is an upcoming community performance produced and directed by Nottingham Playhouse in partnership with St. Barnabas’ Cathedral. This mystery play depicts the story of Noah and his family responding to news of an impending flood and taking actions to ensure life survives after the disaster.

We are seeking a committed community cast to rehearse and perform this light-hearted and comedic one act play. As part of the community cast, you will work closely with and be directed by Andy Reeves, Nottingham Playhouse’s co-Director of Participation. Andy has extensive experience of directing community casts and working with Middle English texts, including being head of learning at the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust. 

No experience of acting is required, but a commitment to attending rehearsals, learning lines in your own time and working in a supportive and respectful way are essential.

If you wish to take part in this production, please complete this form Nottingham Playhouse – Noah and the Deluge – Application – Fill out form by Wednesday 16th December. It is free of charge to take part. We may close the application window early if we reach our application capacity.
