Share Your Talent with the School of Dance & Theatre

Your experience is a gift—pass it on.

At the School of Dance & Theatre, we believe learning doesn’t stop at the edge of the stage or the studio floor. We’re always seeking new voices, perspectives, and experiences to enrich our students’ education and strengthen our creative community.

There are many ways you can support and inspire our students:

  • Lead a masterclass or workshop: Share your performance, choreography, design, direction, or production expertise.
  • Guest lecture or classroom visit: Speak to students about your career journey, industry trends, or graduate school experiences.
  • Mentor a student artist: Offer portfolio reviews, audition prep, or career guidance as they plan for life after graduation.
  • Choreograph or direct a piece: Collaborate with students on original works or stage an excerpt from your repertoire.
  • Participate in panels or talkbacks: Help bridge classroom learning with real-world application.

Who We’re Looking For

We invite contributions from:

  • Alumni working in performance, education, design, or related fields
  • Guest artists from professional companies or creative collectives
  • Arts educators with teaching experience in dance or theatre
  • Community leaders who value the role of the arts in education and culture
