University of Windsor - School of Dramatic Art
Position Title: Tenure-Track Position - Movement for the Actor

Position Description: The University of Windsor's School of Dramatic Art
seeks applications from dynamic and experienced movement specialists  for a
tenure track position in Movement for the Actor within the B.F.A. (Hons.)
Acting Program to commence July 1, 2002 at the rank of Assistant
Professor. This position is subject to final budgetary approval.

Dramatic Art at the University of Windsor is one of the oldest and best
established theatre and drama programs in the country.  Our graduates have
made a mark in education and on both the world stage and in film.
Currently Dramatic Art offers honours degree programs in Acting, Music
Theatre, Drama in Education and Drama, and a wide ranging subscription
season of plays through University Players that serve the community. For
further information about the School of Dramatic Art, visit our website at
www.uwindsor.ca/drama.

New Building planned for January 2003 -  The new 30,000-square-foot,
two-storey facility for Dramatic Art will be located on the west side of
Essex Hall and attached to the north and west face of the existing Essex
Hall Theatre.  It will replace much of the space in the current Drama
Building with new offices and teaching labs.  A building committee has
selected AJ Diamond, Donald Schmitt architects (Toronto)  and Michele
DiMaio Architect (Windsor) to design the facility.  The university expects
to break ground on this project in late November or early December and
hopes to be moved into the new building by January 2003. Our new facility
will house brand new, state of the art classrooms, Studio Theatre, dance
studio, children's theatre, box office, student lounge and faculty offices.

The Dramatic Art Facility is part of the campus development projects made
possible in part by funding from the provincial SuperBuild program. For
details on the SuperBuild projects on campus, go to

The City of Windsor has a vital and expanding cultural community and we are
within easy driving distance to Stratford, Toronto, Detroit, and Chicago.
Boundless opportunities exist to explore and expand creative potential
within both the University setting and the community.

Applicants must have an MFA or Ph.D. in movement for the actor or a closely
related area by the date of appointment.

Previous experience in university teaching is essential. Additional
consideration will be given to candidates who are able to teach movement
specialties such as period dance, mask, armed and unarmed combat as well as
the ability to teach in other programs within the School of Dramatic Art. A
demonstrated commitment to research and creative activity in theatre is
expected.

The successful candidate will be largely responsible for the delivery of
movement curriculum within the B.F.A. Acting program and will work
alongside other faculty to enhance new developments in the B.F.A. program.
The teaching of movement in related B.A. Drama programs is also a
possibility.

The University of Windsor is committed to equity and diversity in the
workplace and welcomes applications from Aboriginal peoples, persons with
disabilities and members of visible minorities. Applications from women are
particularly encouraged.

Applications will include: a letter of application; a curriculum vitae; a
statement of teaching and creative activity interests; teaching evaluations
or other evidence of effective teaching; sample course outlines; sample of
creative and/or scholarly work; and three letters of reference, forwarded
by the referees.

To ensure full consideration, complete applications, including letters of
reference, should be submitted by January 31, 2002 to:
