Fancy a job that’ll send shivers down your spine? The Edinburgh Dungeon is on the hunt for theatrical talent to join our twisted cast and help bring Edinburgh’s gruesome past back to life. This is not your average gig – this is a 75-minute interactive tour through some of the city’s most delightfully disturbing history!
You could find yourself playing a bloodthirsty Judge, the dastardly Torturer, a member of Sawney Bean’s family, the ‘Foul Clenger’, or even Mary Queen of Scots herself. Each character has a script, but you’ll need to bring a bit of flair and improv to really make them your own. You’ll also be controlling some proper spooktacular special effects.
Performances are regular – every 8 to 10 minutes during peak times, so stamina is key. You’ll be performing in tight, mysterious spaces, and flexibility is essential; this role involves evenings, weekends, and some late-night shenanigans for our special ‘Dungeon Lates’ events.
Qualifications & Experience
1. A background in performance and character acting (formal training a plus, but not essential if you’ve got the talent).
2. Strong characterisation skills.
3. A voice that commands attention (bonus points for a convincing Scottish accent).
4. Quick script learner with a knack for taking direction.
5. An improv master who can react to our guests and keep their cool in the midst of chaos.
6. Stamina to perform multiple shows without letting the quality drop.
Benefits
Alongside the opportunity to inflict your unique personality on guests from across the nation, you’ll also receive:
1. Monthly Bonus based on customer satisfaction.
2. 25% discount in our retail shops and restaurants.
3. 40% off LEGO online.
4. Merlin Magic Pass – giving you free tickets to all our attractions worldwide for you, your family, and friends every year.
5. Employee pricing up to 55% off cinema tickets.
The cell doors are open and ready to welcome you…
