Company management internships

PacRep employs visiting Equity and guest artists, directors and designers each season. Company management interns handle the day-to-day details of the acting company's professional lives at PacRep.

That includes travel, housing and special needs, and helping integrate artists into PacRep and the community. This internship does not lead to performance opportunities. Applicants should have theatre experience, work well with people and be well organized; office skills help, and energy and creative problem-solving are essential. Recommended for students pursuing a career in theatre administration.
