Director’s Festival

The Director’s Festival offers a home for inquiry into the individual director’s style, process, and methodology in a laboratory setting crafted by and for the students themselves. By experimenting through collaborative practice, the director learns to individualize their voice and establish their artistic identity in a space without judgment.

The Festival fosters an environment where the director self-produces work, with opportunities to explore producing, dramaturgy, marketing, stage management, and more. The director thus elevates their learning beyond theory and toward artistry-in-process.

The only way to learn to direct is to direct.
