Internships last from 4-12 weeks and include hands-on work (16-25 hours a week) in a designated area of focus, individualized educational and professional goals, and bi-weekly intern/apprentice seminar meetings led by SRT employees, guest artists , and regional specialists. The internships include a stipend (TBA) and students may engage in an internship for college credit (if so desired). Interns focus on one of two areas: technical theatre or stage management.
