Question 18 of 25

Are you able to work long hours?

The filming process can be long and tedious. The same goes for play rehearsals. You will need to be flexible and eager to work whatever hours are expected. Now would be a good time to ask about expectations if you're not sure what the schedule might look like.

Don't be surprised if there isn't a clear schedule. Decide before the audition what you are able to realistically commit and relay that to the interviewer.
