Become a Kinkonaut

Audition to join our conservatory

Interested in becoming a Kinkonaut? The first step is to audition! LIMITED SPACES AVAILABLE.

Auditions will occur on 

Monday evening, Sept 22 from 7pm-9:30pm
and Monday evening, Sept 29 from 7pm-9:30pm

Auditioners are encouraged to attend BOTH audition sessions, but will still be considered if only able to attend one. 
A second or split time slot may be added if sign-ups warrant. 

An optional Boot Camp will happen on two Monday evening, August 25 from 7pm-9:30pm at the Kinkonauts.

Some notes: New Kinkonauts participate in Conservatory classes. They run weekly on Monday evenings from October to April. You will learn to play the Kinkonauts style of longform in a cohort-based, workshop format, developing your skills under the instruction of Kinkonauts directors. Because we are cohort-based attendance is very important.  It is a FREE program but in exchange for the in-depth training, a minimum volunteer commitment is required. You will be required to volunteer once a month for the duration of the program (Fridays or Sundays from 6:30pm-9pm)
If you have any questions or concerns please contact Kelsey Schoen at
Kelsey@kinkonauts.com AND Jordan Lane Jordan@kinkonauts.com.
