Student Director Application

For the annual Winter One-Act Festival in the La Salle theater season, there is an opportunity for
students to serve as directors. These student directors are instrumental to the success of the show. The
purpose of this application is for students interested in directing a One-Act to demonstrate their ability to
organize, manage and develop a story from “page to stage”. There is an application AND and interview
that goes with each interested student director. During the interview process student directors will be
asked about their ideas on directing and be posed several different hypothetical scenarios they will be
asked to create solutions for. All applicants who are selected to be directors will be informed within 2 - 3
days of their interview.

Job responsibilities/expectations:
● Directors are expected to organize pre-production meetings, manage their individual
project and prepare all materials for Auditions.
● Directors are responsible for attending all scheduled rehearsals. Rehearsals can be held
daily from 3:30 - 5:30pm.
● Directors are responsible for working with the other student directors to create a
production calendar of rehearsals and other events between auditions and the run of the
show.
● Directors are expected to maintain contact information for the cast and communicate
schedules and all last minute changes.
● Directors are expected to maintain a rehearsal script, recording all blocking and cues.
● Directors are expected to communicate with student leaders on the stage crew in
regards to props, lights, costumes, etc.
