BYOI Auditions 2025: Ready to Play?
Think you’ve got what it takes to make people laugh, cheer, and occasionally snort with joy? BYOI is on the lookout for new performers to join our ever-creative team of improvisers. Our auditions are low-pressure, high-energy, and—most importantly—a ton of fun. Whether you’re a seasoned performer or someone who just loves to play, we want to see what you’ve got.
Audition Dates and Details
When:
Friday, January 10th, 2025, starting at 6:00 PM
Friday, January 17th, 2025, starting at 6:00 PM
(Pick one or both)
Where:
Warwick Center for the Arts, 3259 Post Road, Warwick, RI
Here’s how it works:
- Show up ready to play, laugh, and move.
- Expect a 60- to 90-minute session filled with warm-ups and games designed to bring out your creativity.
- Afterward, enjoy a free ticket to both shows that night. Stick around, watch, and even jump on stage as a volunteer when the time comes.
Audition once or twice—your call—but the more we see you, the better we can get to know your style.

What We’re Looking For
You don’t need experience, a headshot, or a resume—just a willingness to play and work as part of a team. At BYOI, it’s not about competing; it’s about collaborating. Show us how you can help others succeed, fail spectacularly, and turn even the quirkiest suggestion into comedy gold.
Here’s what we value in a performer:
✔️ At least 18 years of age
✔️ Can pass a Rhode Island background check
✔️ Works well with kids and can be delightfully silly
✔️ Family-friendly humor and a collaborative spirit
✔️ Reliable transportation and punctuality
✔️ Willingness to commit to two Friday nights and one rehearsal per month
✔️ Bonus points if you can rock a guitar! (Or strum it gently. We’re flexible.)
What to Bring
- Comfortable clothes—you’ll need to move!
- Water to stay hydrated.
- Yourself, on time, and ready to play.
What Makes BYOI Different?
We create interactive, family-friendly improv that invites the audience to play along. Every show is a collaboration, and every team member helps make the magic happen. We’re not looking for stars; we’re looking for supportive, creative, team players who can shine with others.
Why Join BYOI?
Performing with BYOI is more than just being on stage. It’s about connecting with people, making moments, and creating laughter that builds confidence and community. If this sounds like your kind of gig, we’d love to see you at auditions.
