We strive to encourage our students to realize their own unique potential and vision.

We produce a full season of shows each academic year and are proud to host Tantrum Theater, Ohio University's professional theater, as well as Vibrancy Theater.
This position focuses on undergraduate teaching within a BFA training program that integrates professional practice, production-based learning, and close faculty mentorship. The successful candidate will be a teacher–practitioner who prepares students for careers in stage management across theater, musical theater, opera, dance, and emerging performance forms. The position includes both classroom instruction and active mentorship of student stage managers on productions. The School is particularly interested in candidates who can contribute to a high-impact, production-driven training model with early and sustained student engagement in realized work.
