2023-2024 Directors
What does a director do?
Directors are in charge of the creative vision of a production. They bring out the best in their actors and oversee creative decisions in costumes and design. They are responsible for casting, scheduling rehearsals, and working collaboratively with the playwright, cast, and crew throughout the workshop process. Do I need prior directing experience to work with Project Spotlight? Not necessarily, though it definitely helps. We encourage individuals with no prior experience to apply as an Assistant Director for a semester in order to learn the ropes before taking charge of an entire production. Many of our directors also started out as actors, stage managers, or designers. How are directors chosen? Following the submission deadline, our Artistic Director and members of our leadership team review the applications and will conduct a short phone interview, after which we will contact those selected to participate this season. How do I apply? Director applications for the Spring 2024 season are now closed. Follow our social media for more information when applications are open again. |
