DRAMA INSTRUCTOR & PRODUCTION CONSULTANT

Linda Kislingbury spent 19 years teaching drama and technical theater at San Marin, creating opportunities for students to perform, direct, compete, travel, and take on leadership roles both on stage and behind the scenes. Under her leadership, San Marin Drama participated in festivals and competitions throughout California, earned Gold and Silver honors at the Lenaea Drama Festival, traveled to England for a theater tour, and was selected to represent the U.S. at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in Scotland.

Linda and her students also partnered with the Marin County District Attorney’s Office to act in and help create three cautionary films addressing alcoholism, cyberbullying, and the risks of posting inappropriate images online. The films have been shown to more than 15,000 students throughout California.

Linda also made student leadership an important part of the program, giving advanced drama students opportunities to serve as student directors and learn the production process from a new perspective. Since retiring in 2019, she has remained closely involved with San Marin as a production consultant, helping with costumes, offering guidance, and serving as a valued resource for the current drama program. In recognition of her longtime dedication to San Marin Performing Arts, the lobby of the Emily Gates Performing Arts Center was named in her honor in 2021.
