Assistant Director/Stage Managers 
​32nd Annual
New Ideas Festival 2020 (NIF)
Festival runs March 11-29, 2020
 
Assistant Director/Stage Managers (ADSMs) are needed for Alumnae Theatre Company’s New Ideas Festival (NIF) 2020, a 3-week juried festival of 14 new works. ADSMs will be assigned to one Festival show, with rehearsals throughout February and one performance week in March.

Performances run from Wednesday through Sunday: evenings Wednesdays to Saturday and matinees Saturday and Sunday.

The focus of NIF is to develop and nurture all participating artists. Production needs and responsibilities are kept to a minimum, hence the NIF ADSM role is great for beginners and for artists looking to expand their theatre knowledge and experience. Alumnae Theatre will provide training for all Festival ADSMs.

ADSMs will be invited to apply to the director pool for NIF 2021, and many past ADSMs have directed in subsequent festivals.

If you are interested in participating in NIF 2020, please email:
