Open call for directors!!
 

Albany Civic Theater is currently soliciting submissions from directors for their 66th Season.  We are seeking
 directors for 4 main stage shows running three weekends each in September 2020, November 2020, February/March 2021
and May 2021.

 

Albany Civic likes to offer a balanced season and is seeking dramatic and comedic works, as well as small scale musicals.  The committee strives to find balance in the season with cutting
 edge new works and classic revivals, and a season that provides a combination of artistic risks and commercial success.   Please take into account the physical constraints of our cozy space. For example, musical submissions can accommodate no more than a three
 piece orchestra.

 

All submissions should include your current resume of directing experience.  Each submission should also include a description of the play, any unique interpretations you will bring to the production and a list of production
 team members who have committed to your project. 




Please note - we strongly recommend that you submit copies of the plays submitted as they will not be returned. 

 

Directors must answer the following questions with their submission:

1)      Cast Size, Male/Female breakdown, age or ethnic considerations.

2)      The name of the licensing company.

3)      Special tech considerations.

4)      Special costuming considerations.


5)      What can you as director bring to this play?

6)      Why would this show appeal to an audience and what type of audience?

7)      Please state which of the time slots you are interested in (September, November, February/March, May).
