Open Auditions for NBC’s 6th Annual Stand Up for Diversity Talent Search
A nationwide search for stand-up comedians of diverse backgrounds which NBC’s Talent Diversity Initiative is proud to present for its sixth consecutive year! NBC is auditioning and showcasing comics across the U.S. through November.
Through this initiative comedians of diverse backgrounds have been launched to new career milestones. Each year NBC selects 3-5 cities across the country and holds both auditions and live showcases of the top diverse talent from that area. At the end of the search a handful of comedians are brought back to Los Angeles to showcase for key industry players at NBC Universal and industry-wide. Many of the comics from last year's Best of Stand-Up for Diversity showcase signed with top Hollywood agents and met with the entertainment industry's leading casting directors and executives.
AUDITION DETAILS
Only the first 100 comics who arrive will be seen so early attendance is strongly recommended. Comics will have one minute at the initial audition. A handful will be invited back later that day to perform a longer set and the top comics will be selected to perform in the showcase.
This is not a show that will air on NBC, but rather an opportunity to be showcased for agents, casting directors, and television executives in consideration for future casting and development opportunities.
This open call is for diverse comics who are serious about being funny. You must have five minutes of polished material.
