[Capdist-auditions] Albany Civic Theater call for Directors

[Evan Jones]

Open call for directors!!

Albany Civic Theater is currently seeking submissions from directors for
their
2024-2025 Season.  We are looking for directors for 3 main stage shows
running
three weekends each in December 2024, February 2025 and May 2025. Our
September slot is already scheduled.

Albany Civic is seeking both dramatic and comedic plays.  The committee
wishes
to find balance in the season with cutting edge new published 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
space.

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 electronic copies of the
plays submitted but we will accept physical copies of plays.

Directors should answer the following questions with their submission:

1)      Special tech/set/costuming considerations.
2)      What can you as a director bring to this play?
3)      Why would this show appeal to an audience, and what type of
audience?
4)      Please state which of the time slots you are interested in:

Slot 1 Show Dates: December 6 – 22, 2024

Slot 2 Show Dates: February 14 - March 2, 2025

Slot 3 Show Dates: May 16 - June 1, 2025
