-------------------------

The Apprentice Company is designed to provide a profound creative, academic, and practical theatre experience for high school and college students. The six-week paid program offers a unique professional summer apprenticeship for exceptional young theatre artists who want to pursue acting, directing, dance, music, and technical theatre.

The Apprentice Company hopes to expose young artists to a wide range of theatrical experiences in order to develop new work and new voices. By fostering meaningful collaboration between young artists we hope to build an Apprentice Company—actors, directors and playwrights all working together within the framework of the larger community theater.

The Apprentice Company is made up of individuals from diverse backgrounds and interests. It includes performers, directors, playwrights, and design/technical students who are interested in performance. Students will be consistently challenged to work outside their comfort zones while developing skills in their area of primary interest.
