Internships - Contemporary American Theater Festival

AMERICA'S NEWEST PLAYS

an unparalleled summer experience



POSITIONS START AS EARLY AS MID-MAY



WHAT’S YOUR PASSION?

The Contemporary American Theater Festival prides itself in offering internships where you focus the majority of your time in your assigned department, while still working in the unique community that a rotating repertory season creates. The ideal applicants for all internship positions are positive, flexible, willing to learn, able to take direction, and work well in a collaborative environment. We ask that you apply for a specific department based on your strengths and passions as a theater artist. You may apply for no more than two departments, but if hired, you will only be assigned to one. Internships usually begin in late May and end in early August, running 8-10 weeks. Join us in historic Shepherdstown, the summer home for bold, new American theater.
