Online auditions for Halloween Horror Nights at USS open till Jun 19

Interested in being a part of the Halloween Horror Nights at the Universal Studios Singapore (USS)? Here’s your chance to do so. 

Resorts World Singapore (RWS) is holding online auditions in search of scare actors for its trademark Halloween event, which will run for 19 selected nights between Sep 30 and Nov 5. 

Applicants can choose to audition for either a generic scare actor role, or a stiltwalker or stunt performer.

Scare actors will be stationed in either a haunted house or a scarezone and will have to be comfortable working in small spaces and dark areas. They will also be required to wear character costumes, masks, theatrical make-up.

Those interested in becoming a scare actor will have to submit an application on RWS’ website.  

Applications must include a headshot or bodyshot as well as an unlisted self-introductory video. It is optional to include a personal resume and Curriculum Vitae (CV). 

Their audition video must showcase their previous experiences. For those with no previous experience, a demo reel is to be provided to highlight their physical or acting skills.

Those shortlisted will then be required to perform a specific role cast by USS Show Directors. 

For stilt walker and stunt performer applicants, the second round of callbacks may involve performing an in-person stilt audition to test skill level and strength. Male performers should be prepared to show their upper-body on camera during the session. 

Singapore citizens and permanent residents aged 18 and above are eligible for the audition. 

A contract will be offered to successful applicants and rehearsals will be held in September. Costume fittings will be scheduled in the month of August and will take between one and two sessions.

Due to the physically demanding nature of the roles, applicants must have good stamina and be in optimal physical health. Each performance set will be no longer than 45 minutes and actors may be required to perform indoors or outdoors. 

Applicants will have to complete the Audition Application Form by Jun 19. Additionally, they are required to send their completed audition submission materials to ussaudition@rwsentosa.com.
