Announcing the All-New Backstage Casting Platform

A Guide for Casting Directors & Employers

We’re excited to announce that we’ll be launching an all-new online casting platform in a few weeks.

The new site will completely replace the current casting tools that you’ve been using at casting.backstage.com.

Benefits will include:

  • Advanced job-posting options for easily distributing your casting notices, character breakdowns, audition announcements, script sides, and job opportunities at lightning speed.
  • An intuitive new Submissions Inbox that lets you quickly drill down through actor’s and performer’s headshots based on the project and role they applied to, location, gender, and more. Find the perfect applicant in just a few clicks.
  • A gorgeous new Talent Database where you can speedily review thousands of actors’ profiles to find amazing talent for your productions.
  • Create your own profile, for free, so actors can learn more about you and your company’s credits.
  • If you have a non-expired casting notice active on Backstage.com at the time of the new site launch, your current notice will be automatically transferred to the new site so you can begin seamlessly receiving new submissions from actors without any additional work on your part.

However, when the new casting platform launches, some of your current data will be lost:

  • Any submissions that are in your current Submissions Inbox will not be transferred over to the new site.
  • Your old Expired Casting Notices will not be transferred over.
  • Your current Company Profile will not be transferred over.
  • Your Saved Searches and Alerts will not be transferred over.
  • Your Order History, Purchase Receipts, and Payment Methods will not be transferred over.

If you need access to any of this old data from your account, we’ll have an archive of the old casting website available for a limited time after the relaunch.

We’ll send you a link to the archived version of your old account soon after the site relaunches.

We think you’ll love the new casting site, and look forward to your feedback!
