Description
The Department of Film, Television, and Theatre (FTT) at the University of Notre Dame is seeking a candidate for an appointment as an assistant professor of the practice in musical theatre writing, with a starting date of August 2027.

Successful candidates may also teach in the New Works Lab, a course in which students write a new musical; advise student capstone projects; and/or assist on department Musical Theatre productions (both new and existing musicals). This position also offers opportunities for collaboration with faculty across departments and with university-wide institutes and the Arts Initiative.
Qualifications
  • Candidates must have an MFA, MA, or MM in Musical Theatre, Musical Theatre Writing, Music, or related fields; or a PhD or DMA in Music Theory/Composition.
  • Candidates must have a demonstrable track record of successful professional musical theatre productions.
  • Candidates must have experience in or demonstrable potential for successful college-level teaching in a liberal arts environment.

  • Approach to musical theatre writing;
  • Representative successful past productions;
  • future career trajectory and plans for future projects;
  • teaching experience and pedagogic principles; and how their courses and pedagogy will enhance FTT's curriculum.
