• Seasonal Triboro Youth Theatre is building its roster of Music Directors for the 2026-2027 season.

This posting covers three grade-level programs across our Fall 2026 and Winter 2027 sessions. Candidates may apply for one program or several — it is common for a single Music Director to work multiple productions in a season. As Music Director, you are not a supporting role — you are one-third of the creative team, working in close collaboration with the Production Director and Choreographer from early rehearsals through closing night. TYT productions are full-scale musicals with live audiences, and musical quality is central to our work. Every registered student gets a role. No one is cut. Auditions determine placement only.
