The Drama League is America’s only full-time, year-round career development home for directors — the artists who stand at the center of performance collaborations in theater, film, television, VR, and dozens of related creative industries. Directors are architects of storytelling, fulfilling two essential human needs — to understand our world more deeply, and imagine new possibilities. Through their work, directors enable us to explore the potential in human relationships, shared experiences, and collective understanding.  Despite the critical role directors play in our society’s well-being, their work is often invisible to audiences; their profession is deeply under-supported and misunderstood, even inside the field. To address this, The Drama League Directors Project offers a broad portfolio of acclaimed opportunities for directors at all stages of their careers, in order to accelerate their development and support the most impactful creative work possible.
