  • Playwrights

    In our 2025/26 season we are producing three world premieres. We are a proud National New Play Network Member. And we just love reading new work! If you feel your play is a good fit for American Lives Theatre, email Literary Director Andrew Kramer and send a copy. Please allow 3-6 months, but we will happily give it a read.

  • Actors

    We typically have season generals in the month of June. As of June 18, 2025, our upcoming season generals have passed. However, we woud still love to meet you! Email Artistic Director Chris Saunders an introduction with a headshot and resume if you have it.

  • Designers, Directors, and Stage Managers

    For the most part, we hire locally from our Indy talent pool. However, we encourage anyone interested in working with American Lives Theatre to introduce themselves. We’d love to hear what excites you most, and where you see yourself in our company! Please email Artistic Director Chris Saunders.

  • Board & Committee Members

    If you’d love to help shape our organization, we WANT to hear from you. We are always in search of volunteers, community organizers, anyone who loves what we are doing and wants to play a part. Please email your interest to Artistic Director Chris Saunders, and he will be sure to get back with you!
