Director Submissions

Procedure: Interested directors may submit up to three shows for consideration for our 2027/2028 season.

Process: Submissions will be reviewed by the all-volunteer Dayton Playhouse Artistic Committee. The committee will also consider other shows that are appropriate for our season separate from submissions. Please indicate if you might be interested in directing a show other than those you have submitted.

Selection: The Artistic Committee will submit a proposed season, along with possible alternatives, to the Dayton Playhouse Board of Directors. The Board makes the final season selection, based on audience appeal, artistic challenge, resources required and available. Since the Dayton Playhouse is an all-volunteer group, without outside support, focus will be on shows that will spark both patron and artist excitement.

Other Considerations: We’re looking for a diverse mix of directors and show concepts to build an exciting season.
