Unions and Associations
Stage directors may be members of the Stage Directors and Choreographers Society, a union that negotiates for fair wages and working conditions for theater professionals. In some cases, individuals may belong to Actor's Equity, a union which negotiates minimum salaries and working conditions for their members. The American Association of Community Theater provides education, networking opportunities, and career-development support. The National Association of Schools of Theatre has information about accredited programs in theater arts.
