As part of an overall leadership restructure, Shakespeare on the Saskatchewan (“SOTS”) is looking to add one Co-Artistic Director to its leadership team. SOTS will be implementing a new, collaborative leadership model that includes two Artistic Directors and one General Manager. The Artistic Director positions will be part time positions on a job share basis.

The Co-Artistic Director will hold a challenging and rewarding leadership position that reports to the SOTS Board of Directors. Responsible for the artistic and community success of SOTS, this position will be an integral part of how the company operates.

The ideal candidate will have strong knowledge of professional, inclusive theatre processes and practices, will be excited about the changes happening in Canadian Theatre, and passionate about creating the next era of theatre practice. In addition, the ideal candidate will be an excellent collaborator who is not afraid to improve upon the status quo in terms of artistic practice, administrative structure, community building, open access, and diversity.

We are interested in new and diverse approaches, perspectives, and models and welcome all applicants. Preference will be given to qualified applicants from marginalized communities in accordance with the Employment Equity Act and will be valued and strongly considered. Women, Indigenous persons, d/Deaf or disabled persons, and visible minorities are included in the act. These groups, and other marginalized groups not included in the act, are of significant interest in SOTS leadership restructuring.
As the hired individual will be an equal partner to the current Artistic Producer, Will Brooks, we are interested in a candidate who offers an exciting and diverse perspective and understands intimate accessibility
