Killing My Lobster is holding general auditions in May of 2024!!

The initial round of auditions will take place Sunday, May 19th, 2-6pm, and Tuesday, May 21st, 7-10pm, at KML Headquarters (2101 Folsom St, San Francisco, CA).

For this round, we ask you to prepare 1 minute of anything funny, be it a monologue from a play, an original piece, a song, a series of impressions.

Callbacks will take place Thursday, May 30th, 6-10pm, also at KML Headquarters (2101 Folsom St, San Francisco, CA). If you are called back, we will organize groups based on availability and ask you to read sides from original Killing My Lobster sketches.

Actors are paid for the hours spent in the space (kickoff, Final Read, possibly writer's meetings, rehearsals, tech rehearsals, and performances) at SF minimum wage (currently $18.07/hr).

Please ensure you complete both steps, as otherwise, we will not be able to see you for your audition.

Thank you!

All of KML's writers come through KML Sketch Comedy Writing 1 & 2 classes. Even if you're an experienced writer, taking these writing classes is required to be a writer at KML. We work very quickly and within particular guidelines outlined in our curriculums, and skipping them would mean starting at a great disadvantage. 

Note that taking those classes does not, however, guarantee you a spot in the KML writing pool.

Over the course of a year many, many writers come through our doors and only a select few will enter our writing pool. All Sketch Writing 2 grads will receive a submission form they may fill out to be considered for KML’s writing pool.

You can find more information on our writing classes here.
