We offer our interns opportunities to work in many different departments, with the chance to meet and work directly with directors, actors and stage managers.

Our internships are open to all students of drama who have completed at least one year of their degree course (or equivalent). We welcome applications from students currently studying at universities across London and beyond. As an intern you will be involved in all aspects of theatre production; including set building and prop making, costume making and dressmaking, lighting design & operation as well as assisting actors during rehearsals or performances.

Our goal is that you will develop both your practical skills as well as your theoretical knowledge by working alongside professionals from across these areas over a period of three months full time during term time only (September – December 2018).

Students can also use their internship experience as a way to build up an impressive portfolio of creative work. You’ll want to show off your range, so include everything from your writing projects and directing efforts to your acting reels and stage management documentation. If you have any photos or videos from the productions you were involved in, include those too.

If possible, create one folder on Dropbox or Google Drive where all of this content is stored; then upload it to your portfolio website (like Behance). You may also want to include links to some of the reviews or articles that were written about the shows you worked on during your internship; these are good ways for prospective employers to see what kind of press coverage was generated thanks in part to your hard work!

You can gain valuable experience in the theater industry by interning in London.

Interning in London is a great way to get experience in the theater industry. The city has many well-known theater companies, and it’s also a hub for activity in the arts. There are many opportunities for internships, especially at smaller theaters that may not be able to offer paid positions.

You can learn a lot about the business side of theatre by working closely with production managers and directors as an intern. You’ll learn how they keep track of what they need, set up meetings with other people in their company, manage budgets and schedules. It’s also a great way to network with other people who work in theatre; they may be willing to give you advice later on down the road when you’re looking for jobs or applying to graduate programs!
