Lights, cameras, energy! Family Feud producers have been making the rounds nationwide on the hunt for great families for our upcoming season. Next up: LA!
Our most recent auditions took us from San Francisco to Milwaukee, and what can we say? We were impressed. Following two very successful events, our co-executive producer and head of casting Sara Dansby gives us the scoop on auditions so far, and a look at what’s next.
Recap: San Francisco
when: March 10 and 11, 2018
where: DoubleTree by Hilton Berkeley Marina, CA
# of families auditioned: 596
Scenic San Fran represented in a major way and we met some amazing families on this trip – 596 to be exact – who came ready to show their stuff. In addition to their 49ers and Warriors gear, Feud devotees also sported total try-out enthusiasm. “We had an incredible turnout in San Francisco,” says Sara Dansby, co-executive producer and head of casting, “families were really fun, energetic, and excited about the show.”
Recap: Milwaukee
when: March 17 and 18, 2018
where: Hyatt Regency Milwaukee, WI
# of families auditioned: 482
To be in Brew City on St. Patrick’s Day was nearly as fun as meeting the memorable families who shamrocked their way through try-outs. “To be back in Milwaukee after two years, and on St. Patrick’s Day, was pretty cool,” Dansby noted, “it’s the families that make our show special, and Milwaukee didn’t disappoint.”
