DIRECTING

Coordinator, Cory Johnson, johnsoncorinnes@sau.edu
Application/Submissions deadlines for Directing Initiatives at Festival 51 are Friday, December 7th, at 5 pm. DON'T MISS THESE OPPORTUNITIES! 
Welcome to the KCACTF Directing Initiatives. Below, please find links to the individual directing events.  

One of the many aims of KCACTF is to nurture the next generation of stage directors.  To attain that goal, there are several opportunities for young directors at the Region 5 Festival to foster their growth as a director no matter their experience level.  Below is a description of all directing opportunities and a recommendation based on experience level.

STUDENTS

Direction of a prepared scene for the SDC Event:  intended for those intermediate or advanced directing students.  Preference will be given to those who have demonstrated success in directing a one act or full-length play. 

Students in this program will present their prepared scene in front of SDC responders who will critique the work, interview the director, and select the final four to six scenes for a public performance.  The winning director will receive an invitation to attend the national KCACTF festival in April.

Direction of a Concert Reading of a National Playwriting Program (NPP) Ten-Minute Play.
Students will work collaboratively with a student playwright on the development of a concert reading of a new ten-minute play and will receive assistance from a faculty mentor. This event is intended for those students interested in learning how to direct a concert reading of a new play.
Learn More about Directing the 10-Minute Plays

Directing Intensive Workshop:  intended for students with any level of directing  experience.  In order to participate in this 2-day workshop, you will not be able to direct for the SDC Event or the Ten-Minute Play Festival.

Students in this two-day workshop will participate in a series of exercises geared toward the Festival Theme of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion​.
