The production committee is looking forward to the theatre's 19th season (2022/2023) and we are looking for directors. The shows being considered are listed on the right (or below if you're viewing on mobile); only four or five will be chosen with no more than two musicals. 

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, 2022.

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!
