Bay Street Seeking Interns
Bay Street Theater in Sag Harbor is accepting applications for its summer college internship program, with positions for acting apprentices and in scenic stagecraft, lighting and sound, wardrobe, box office, arts administration, marketing, development, and other areas.
The program gives interns a chance to “experience firsthand the inner workings of a dynamic, professional theater, garnering invaluable work skills in the various aspects of technical and artistic production, as well as arts administration,” according to the theater. “By actively working with trade professionals, many with Broadway credentials, throughout the rigorously scheduled rehearsal and production process, interns directly explore their own suitability to the demands and rewards of a life in the theater.”
Interns participate in workshops, training sessions, master classes, and team-building exercises, and also put together a production of their own, which will have a limited run in August.
The program will run from May 20 through Aug. 27. For technical and production interns, priority will be given to those able to commit to an extended season from May 13 through Sept. 2. The deadline to apply is Jan. 14 for priority consideration. Applications received after that will be considered based on availability. Interns get a weekly stipend, along with housing and some meals.
Applications can be found online at baystreet.org.
