CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS - SHAW DIRECTORS PROJECT
------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------
Application deadline for 2009 is June 27, 2008.

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, depending on the production schedule for the particular season.
These positions are salaried at an apprentice level, which at The Shaw
is around $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
under Upcoming Deadlines.  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.  Please do not send support
materials that you wish to have returned.  Applicants must be Canadian
citizens.  Hiring decisions are made exclusively by the Shaw Festival.

If you have questions about the application process, please contact:
Tim Chapman Theatre Ontario   416-408-4556
