Ever fancied being part of the scariest and funniest journey through Edinburgh’s most perilous past?OI PEASANTS! WE’RE RECRUITING ACTORS…We’re bringing together an outstanding cast of theatrical actors to help transport our guests back in history. The Edinburgh Dungeon is a 75-minute interactive theatrical tour where our guests are transported back in history and recounted tales of Edinburgh’s murky past by one of our many infamous characters. You could therefore find yourself taking on the role of the Judge, The Torturer, a member of Sawney Bean’s family, The ‘Foul Clenger’, Mary Queen of Scots, or even the ‘Witch Pricker’, amongst others. Each character delivers a short, scripted show, which is crafted to be interactive so improvisation will also form a key part of your performance. As well as maintaining strong characterisation throughout each show, you’ll also be operating and controlling special effects during your performance, to enhance the whole experience. These roles are seasonal offering both full-time and part-time hours. You’ll need to be flexible with working hours and days. This role may include working both Saturday and Sunday, plus a Friday evening late shift every fortnight, for our special event ‘Dungeon Lates’ experience.
