The production committee is working on assembling the theatre's 17th season (2020/2021) and we are looking for directors.
If you are interested in directing any of these shows, please fill out and submit a Director's Packet (linked above) to production.chair@newtowneplayers.org.
​
The Director’s Application Form is where you will outline your vision for the productions you would like to direct. In addition to the criteria identified, availability of rights for a show is also a factor in our final decision.

The submission deadline is January 3, 2020.

Please feel free to contact the Production Committee at  production.chair@newtowneplayers.org  with any questions you have regarding this process.

If you are not interested in directing but would like to be part of a production team please email us and let know. We look forward to hearing from you!
