Performing Arts Department Faculty – Acting/Tech Theater

Lincoln School, founded in 1884, is an independent K-12 Quaker girls’ school in Providence, Rhode Island. We also offer a coed program from six weeks through Pre-kindergarten. We are currently seeking a full-time Acting/Tech Theater teacher to join the Performing Arts team for the 2024–2025 school year. Lincoln School values working with a diverse faculty and staff and seeks applications from individuals who share our commitment to educating girls to fearlessly embrace the opportunities and responsibilities of full citizenship in a complex world.

This position may entail teaching a range of Lower, Middle, and Upper School performing arts classes as well as Upper School technical theater classes, and collaborating with other members of the Performing Arts department to produce multiple plays and productions each academic year.  Lincoln is prioritizing candidates who have experience in the entire scope of the play production process including technical theater, direction, and stage management.

Qualified candidates will have a strong background in the most up-to-date and creative approaches in theater education and production, and a passion for designing curricula that help students across grades 4 – 12 develop their creative voices, confidence, and communication and collaboration skills. They will provide a joyful and supportive learning environment for all ages, and be a proven collaborator, skilled at working well with others. In addition to teaching, responsibilities include attending all required meetings and functions, upholding Lincoln’s Quaker values, and supporting students outside the classroom. Teachers at Lincoln embrace and uphold Lincoln’s values of diversity, equity, and inclusion; and they bring anti-racist practices into their classroom.
