Cape Cod Theatre Project Seeks Summer Interns
FALMOUTH, MA: The Cape Cod Theatre Project,
located in Falmouth Massachusetts, is seeking interns for its 2008 Summer Season
July 3-August 3. The Intern Program, which offers a unique experience in
summer theatre, is open to students ages 16-20.
Through its internship program, The Cape Cod Theatre Project seeks to cultivate
the next generation of theater professionals with hands-on experiences with
seasoned actors, playwrights, directors, and technicians in creative and
technical production. Internship activities include observing theater
professionals at rehearsals; attending tutorials, workshops, and master classes
given by theater professionals; learning to construct and run the technical
elements of a production; acting as publicity and hospitality crew; and
producing the annual intern play in the last week of the season.
CCTP is seeking mature teens with a commitment to learning theater-craft.
Students must be available from July 3 to August 3. Interns are expected to be
present for rehearsals, tutorials, and performances. Rehearsals are held during
the week and performances take place Thursdays through Saturdays in the
evenings.
All internships are unpaid, however, there is time available for interns to seek
employment outside of CCTP hours. Interns must arrange for their own
transportation and housing.
Paul Conroy, CCTP's new Intern Coordinator, currrently serves at Director of
Performing Arts at Quincy High School and teaches several classes there. He has
worked at several area theaters, including the Lyric Stage Company of Boston.
Students, parents or teachers who have questions about the CCTP, the internship
