Directing Program
Rain and Zoe Save the World
The Webster University directing program combines elements of each area in the Conservatory to provide students with a well-rounded theatre background. Practical experience supplements classroom work, and Conservatory directors assist on professional productions such as those at Repertory Theatre St. Louis, a nationally recognized LORT (League of Resident Theatre) organization. Combined with a senior semester on one of Webster’s international campuses, the directing program provides a rich environment of learning for the student director.
Directors are storytellers. As students of directing begin their journey toward a career in theatre, the coursework at Webster vigorously stresses the craft of directing, while providing opportunities for each student to discover the stories they want to tell. The road to professional directing is a long one. Throughout their career in Conservatory, directing students will study directing, acting, design, and stage management. In their final semester, students will direct a capstone project. Webster provides the opportunity for students to emerge as leaders and sets them on the journey toward a professional career in directing.
