2008 SHAW FESTIVAL DIRECTORS PROJECT

Application deadline for 2008 is June 29, 2007.  
Each year the Shaw Festival hires two Intern Directors for a period of
about six months. They look for promising professional directors near
the beginning of their careers. Applicants should have a fair bit of
professional experience, but probably not in a company as large as the
Shaw Festival. The contracts run approximately from mid-March to late
August.  These positions are salaried at an apprentice level, which at
the Shaw is between $500 and $600 per week.

Applications for the Intern Director positions are made through Theatre
Ontario. For a more complete guide to applicants, go to their website at
www.theatreontario.org and click on the Shaw Festival Directors Project
on the home page.
There is a June 29 application deadline to begin residency the following
March. There is no application form - just submit a resume with a
covering letter, explaining why you would like to be an Intern Director
at the Shaw Festival. Applicants must be Canadian citizens. Hiring
decisions are made exclusively by the Shaw Festival.

If you have questions please contact Tim Chapman at Theatre Ontario at
416-408-4556 or email tim at theatreontario.org
