Steppenwolf is always interested in hearing from early career directors who are interested in assistant directing opportunities. We hire assistant directors for all productions on a rolling basis. As such, some productions might already be staffed. When all positions have been filled, the application form will close.
THE APPLICATION FORM FOR THE 2024-25 SEASON IS NOW CLOSED.
In the weeks after Steppenwolf’s season announcement this Spring, check this page for updates for opportunities in the 2025-26 Season.

After submitting your application, there is no need to follow up; we will be in touch as necessary as the hiring process moves along. Specific questions about assistant directing opportunities can be sent to Steppenwolf’s Creative Producer Patrick Zakem at pzakem@steppenwolf.org.
