The AOH internship program provides a comprehensive experience in all aspects of running a small but vibrant professional theater company. Interns gain hands-on training in pre- and post-production, tech, and staging of a variety of cultural events held at AOH's historic venue and at scenic, rural venues throughout Columbia County. Working side-by-side with professionals of each discipline, interns will have the opportunity to learn about all of the elements of marketing, fundraising, patron services on the administrative side and rehearsal processes, stagecraft and design in production.
Applications will be accepted through Friday, May 27th. Applicants should submit a resumé and letter of interest to Susan Silverman at susan@ancramoperahouse.org.
The Ancram Opera House in southern Columbia County, NY, is an intimate showcase for fresh, contemporary work by visionary theater and musical artists where audiences can connect with performers in immersive, immediate ways.
The Opera House was erected in 1927 as Ancram Grange #955, a chapter of the National Grange of the Patrons of Husbandry, to address the social, educational and economic concerns of the region's farmers. In 1972, the building was repurposed and renamed the Ancram Opera House as an arts venue focusing on light operatic fare.
Today, Ancram Opera House rededicates itself to aspects of its origins, producing and presenting inventive contemporary theatrical performances to be shared by a rural community.
