TCG is seeking candidates to fill open positions on its Board of Directors.

The individuals currently serving on the TCG Board represent a broad cross-section of the theatre field and bring varying professional perspectives (including those of unaffiliated artists and trustees). They are leaders in their respective communities and are united in their deep commitment to TCG and the theatre field. They are also responsible for helping advance TCG's strategic plan initiatives, including: Equity, Diversity & Inclusion, Audience & Community Engagement, and our focus on Theatre People.

There are a limited number of open slots and we are looking for Board members who are theatre practitioners (artistic leaders, administrative leader, or artists) and non-practitioners whose expertise and point of view can be critical in helping TCG achieve its work, and who have (and have access to) diverse resources.

TCG is strongly committed to having a diverse and inclusive board that is reflective of the rich ecology of our field. Nominations for women, people of color, disabled, transgender, and gender-nonconforming candidates are especially encouraged.

Board members are appointed to an initial two-year term, which may be renewed for a second and third term of two years each. During their term, we expect that each board member will be actively involved in the following ways:

  • Attend three board meetings each year with no more than two consecutive absences.
  • Attend the annual TCG National Conference, as well as other conferences and forums when possible.
  • Help cultivate membership and supporters of TCG by increasing awareness of, and encouraging participation in, TCG activities.
  • Become knowledgeable about TCG and its programs in order to provide guidance and support, and to serve as an advocate for TCG and the field.
  • Make a meaningful personal contribution to TCG.
  • Serve on at least one board committee.

To submit a nomination, please fill out our Board Nominations Form. The most successful nominations are those which include a compelling statement of interest from the nominee, so we strongly encourage you to include this with your materials. The deadline for nominations is Friday, March 18.

We greatly appreciate your participation in this process.
