Arm-of-the-Sea Theater seeks new company members for starting September 2026.

This is part-time, seasonal work in the Hudson Valley between April-December every year. Must be local to the Hudson Valley during these months, with a preference to applicants within 30 minutes of Saugerties, NY who have reliable transportation.

Prospective applicants should have a background in movement arts, object-based theater, clowning or otherwise and must be able to endure heavy lifting and complex physicality. We ask all applicants to prepare a 3-5 minute piece of movement or object-based theater to a recorded soundtrack or song.

This is a paid position. For more information and to see how payment is structured, please read the Information for Prospective Puppeteers

Auditions will be held at the Tidewater Center in Saugerties, NY on the evenings of August 4th and August 6th.
