What are the responsibilities and job description for the Choir/Music Director position at Mines Little Theatre?
Choir/Music Director needed for a college production of “Anastasia” at Colorado School of Mines. The director must attend evening/weekend rehearsals on campus in Golden from January-April with auditions in early January. Schedule will be set based on cast & director’s availability.
Our ideal Choir/Music Director candidate is immensely flexible and prepared for a dynamic, collaborative environment. These qualities are especially important as our director will be working closely with student actors, crew, and the other directors throughout the creative process. We are looking for a Choir/Music Director with a clear vision and who is ready and willing to work with actors with a variety of skill levels.
Mines Little Theatre is a registered student organization at the Colorado School of Mines that is dedicated to providing students and faculty with opportunities to participate in and learn about theatre and to promote theatre and the arts at Colorado School of Mines and in the Golden community.
