A collection of Bay Area Theatre Companies, Theatre Bay Area, and Arts Education Alliance of the Bay Area are combining efforts to host an open call for Theatre Teaching Artists. The Open Call will take place at the Berkeley Rep School of Theatre located at 2071 Addison St. in Berkeley on Monday, December 7,2026. There will be two sessions; from 2-4 pm and from 6:30 - 8:30pm. (an additional session may be added based on demand)

We are seeking theatre artists of various levels of experience with students of all ages (K-Adult), and we particularly encourage bilingual teaching artists and teaching artists of color to apply.

Participants should prepare to model an activity that showcases their specialty, teaching style, or philosophy as a teaching artist. Participants will have 8-10 minutes to present and have the support of other participants to act as “students.”  

Information on each participating organization and their work opportunities will be provided to all attendees and any teaching artist resume submitted will be distributed to all participating organizations.

Please complete this survey in order to take part in the December 7, 2026 Theatre Teaching Artist Open Call hosted by the Bay Area TYA Roundtable.

Deadline to sign up is December 1, 2026
