Attention Directors!
We are now accepting submissions for the Indiana Players 2026-2027 Mainstage Season!
Would you like to direct a show for our next Mainstage Season? Then fill out a Show Submission Form using the link below!
Submissions will be accepted through
March 23rd, 2026.
Here are the slots we are looking to fill:
-
Summer Youth Musical - Show Dates: 7/31-8/2 and 8/7-8/9. Normally performed with prerecorded music, with a large (25-35) cast, ages 17 or under.
-
Large Cast Comedy or American Classic - Show Dates: 9/11-9/13 and 9/18-9/20.
-
Halloween/Horror-themed Play - Show Dates: 10/23-10/24 and 10/30-11/1. We are looking for something with name recognition within the horror genre.
-
Christmas Show - Show Dates: 12/11-12/13 and 12/18- 12/20. This can be an all youth, all adult, or mixed cast show. Similar to the Halloween slot, we're looking for a well-known title.
-
Contemporary (21st century) American Play - Show Dates 4/2-4/4 and 4/9-4/11. This is the slot to apply for if the show you want to do doesn’t fit anywhere else. Can be smaller, weirder, less well-known. (Bonus points if it is well-known though.)
-
Large Cast Comedy or American Classic - Show Dates 5/14-5/16 and 5/21-5/23
*Slots are provisional and subject to change.
Fill out the online show submission form or, if you prefer, you can also copy the form and fill it out as a word doc, and email it to Sam Sherburne at artisticdirector@indianaplayers.com. You can also reach out to Sam with any questions!
Priority consideration will be given to directors who have previously stage managed or directed a production (one-act or mainstage) with the Indiana Players.
