Assets of a TPM board director include:

• A devotion to TPM's vision and mandate;


• A passion for theatre and performing arts advocacy in Manitoba;


• An eagerness to participate, share your ideas, and have your voice heard;


• A background in leadership and/or the ability to work collaboratively;


• An ability to connect and engage with stakeholders;


• An interest in joining board committees to support informed decision making;


• A desire to support TPM by attending and volunteering at shows and events throughout the season.

Board meetings will be held every one to two (1-2) months.

Meetings are typically one (1) hour in length, with the exception of the AGM which may be held for longer. Scheduling of board meetings will depend on the needs and commitments of the members.

If you choose to join a committee, meetings for specific committees will be held separately from board meetings, and will follow a unique schedule developed by committee members.
