We are looking for a high-school aged student to direct our 2027 student-led show!

This MTC project is student-run as much as possible. The student director will work with fellow students to bring a production from idea to stage, with adult artists available as instructors, advisors, and safety support.

Students will:

  • Research and propose a script  
  • Cast and direct the show  
  • Work with student actors from around the region  
  • Design and implement the set  
  • Run lights/sound  
  • Select or create costumes  
  • Take an active role in the many creative and production decisions

Adult artists are there to advise, teach, and help ensure a safe production, rather than take over the work. This is a great opportunity for a student who wants hands-on experience directing, collaborating, problem-solving, and creating theatre.

The 2027 student-led show will run the last weekend in August.

MTC has presented a student-led show for four years in a row, and the students involved have had wonderful experiences while bringing some fantastic productions to the stage!

f you are interested or have any questions, please email us by October 16 at mantorvilletheatre@gmail.com.

Please pass the message on to anyone who may be interested! This opportunity is open to all students in our local communities!
