Yo! The Episcopal Actors' Guild Wants You!

The Episcopal Actors' Guild is looking for emerging artists (18-45) to perform in its next Yo! Pro Variety Show in October.

The booking committee will be making final decisions soon, so if you would like to perform on the historic Guild Hall stage (1 East 29th St., NYC), send a link where your work can be viewed to matt@actorsguild.org. All acts chosen will get 5 -10 minutes of stage time and a one year membership to EAG!

If you aren't 18-45 but know of a performer who you think will be a good fit for our variety show, don't hesitate to have them contact matt@actorsguild.org.

Maybe you'd prefer to help behind the scenes. The YO PRO Committee would love to see you at its next planning session Monday, Aug. 30 at 6pm in Guild Hall.
