Screen test (8)

I believe the answer is:

audition

(Other definitions for audition that I've seen before include "(Actor's) test interview" , "Hearing for a part-seeking actor" , "Test of a performer's suitability" , "Trial performance for an artiste" , "Hearing for a job-seeking actor" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times, The Mirror and The Sun.
