The New Jersey Theatre Alliance (NJTA) auditions are based on a lottery system for non-Equity performers, and an appointment process for Equity performers. Equity registrations are on a first-come, first-service basis. Earlier AEA registrations are more likely to receive their preferred appointment time.

 

This year's auditions will be held at Enlow Recital Hall on the campus of Kean University in Hillside, NJ.
