Theatre Projects internship program
We love our work.
We think you might love it, too.
That’s why we’re restarting the Theatre Projects internship program. These are paid, in-person opportunities based in Denver, New England, and New York City, available as we have capacity.
Our internship program is full for summer 2023, but we are always happy to receive inquiries about upcoming cycles!
We think it’s important to provide interns with a real-world introduction to our industry. For us, that means a mix of hands-on, collaboratively-led work on our active projects, shadowing opportunities, and mentor guidance and support. It also means a self-directed internship arc, proposed by each intern and customized alongside one of the experts on our team.
