We are currently evaluating the National Conference on Outdoor Theatre and its current format. We are taking this opportunity to recalibrate and craft a conference to encourage broader participation and greater value.
We plan to make announcements soon. Feel free to check back periodically or look for updates via email. If you are not on our email list, you can join on our homepage.
Thank you for your understanding and patience as we work through this process.
ABOUT...
In 2017, the Institute of Outdoor Theatre transitioned into its new partnership and management relationship with SETC. SETC is maintaining and building upon services that have long been valued by the outdoor theatre community, including Summer and Outdoor Theatre Auditions.
This groundbreaking national conference brings together renowned artists, directors, and enthusiasts from across the nation to explore the captivating world of open-air performances.
Each fall, theatre leaders from all backgrounds convene for a multi-day networking event where conference attendees trade insights and explore new concepts in design/technology, management and artistic approach.
