AUDITION/CASTING
Blindspot Collective seeks performers for Ponderbog, a new touring musical for young audiences. This production will tour to San Diego County Elementary Schools in October, 2026.
ABOUT THE PROJECT: Ponderbog is an interactive adventure that whisks two feuding sisters into the magical, endangered forest kingdom of Ponderbog. When a heated argument accidentally unleashes real magic, Kim vanishes into the woods, and Nancy must journey through a world built from childhood memory and imagination to find her. Guided by an unlikely troupe of forest friends, Nancy battles mischievous sprites, the fearsome Hound, and her own self-doubt. Ponderbog is a joyful celebration of imagination, conservation, and love.
Directed by: Shellina Hefner || Written by: Tyler Tafolla

CREATIVE WORK
_edited.png)
Blindspot Collective, a San Diego-based theatre company dedicated to radically inclusive new work and diverse emerging artists, seeks new short plays and musicals to be featured in an immersive theatre production titled Freshman Fifteen.
Developed in collaboration with La Jolla Playhouse, Freshman Fifteen is a collection of short plays and musicals set on a college campus — and premiering on the campus of UC San Diego. Each piece offers a window into the lives of students navigating a pivotal chapter: one defined by newfound independence, shifting identities, intellectual awakening, and the occasional existential spiral between classes.
Audiences will chart their own path through campus, choosing which stories to follow and which doors to open, encountering moments that are hilarious, intimate, awkward, revelatory, and unmistakably of this time.
DIGITAL SUBMISSIONS ARE REQUIRED FOR CONSIDERATION. Submissions will be accepted until 11:59pm on Sunday, June 28th.
We are always accepting submissions for stage managers, directors, designers, and playwrights. Please email a resume and cover letter to submissions@blindspotcollective.org to reach out to us!
