TEACHING ARTISTS:

Character Kids is seeking Teaching Artists for the 2025/2026 school year!

Character Kids offers after school theater classes at elementary schools throughout the greater Madison Area. This is a great supplemental job for working actors and/or college students. Scheduling is flexible, but candidates should be available at least one weekday afternoon and have a reliable mode of transportation. Classes are one hour long and usually fall somewhere between 3-5 pm. Classes take place at our partner elementary schools, and each session meets once per week for 8-10 weeks. Pay is $40/class.

We’re happy to work with first time teachers, although candidates should have some experience in theater and/or education. Interested candidates should send a resume to Molly Kempfer, Character Kids Education Coordinator, at molly@characterkidsdrama.com. Feel free to reach out with questions via email.

About the Company: Character Kids provides after school theater classes and summer theater camps to elementary schools, Rec departments and community centers throughout the Greater Milwaukee Area. In our programs, students learn the basics of acting, singing and musical theater dance while having a lot of fun! Focus is put on developing imagination, social skills and a positive self-image through the performing arts. We want to create a safe and encouraging atmosphere for students to "build character...onstage and off"!
