Roundabout Theatre Company, one of the nation+rsquo;s largest not-for-profit theatres, seeks dynamic professional theatre artists to join a vibrant roster of collaborative teaching artists.

We are specifically in need of teaching artists with expertise in scenic design/carpentry or lighting design/electrics.

Roundabout Theatre Company Teaching Artists develop curriculum and facilitate sessions for various populations including students in grades 6+ndash;12, educators, families, audiences, and other groups. Work is primarily distributed through in-school residencies, on-site workshops, community spaces, and audience engagement events. Programming occurs across NYC's 5 boroughs. Roundabout Teaching Artists sometimes teach their craft, but more frequently use their craft as a vehicle to teach leadership skills, develop social emotional competencies, build community, or connect to the content of another academic subject.

Teaching Artists are hired as part-time employees. Starting hourly rate is $50 per hour for all planning/facilitation and $35 per hour for all required training and administrative tasks. Additional compensation is included for lesson planning and planning meetings for each hour of facilitation. (For starting TAs, this typically looks like: 1 hour of facilitation + 1 hour of lesson planning + 1 hour of planning meeting time = $150 total). Upon completion of required training benchmarks, Teaching Artists can be promoted from the Training rank and earn from $53.06-$63.65 per hour as a Standard Teaching Artist and from $63.66- $78.34 per hour as an Expert Teaching Artist for all planning/facilitation.
