MYT ASSISTANT/INTERNSHIP PROGRAM
The MYT Assistant/Internship program is designed to give college and older high school students the opportunity to experiment with the artistic and technical aspects of a theater arts program. By working side by side with professional artists, students experience the myriad of tasks that go into creating performances.
Interns will also get the opportunity to assist in teaching children (K-5) as well as learning the organizational skills that the mentor teachers use to plan their program. Interns will learn about problem solving, teaching at different age levels, and collaborating with other artists. These skills will be invaluable to young people looking towards careers as teachers, performers, or artists.
Assistants/Interns will focus on several aspects of theater, but can choose what they are most interested in, such as:
- Sound and lights: design, set up and running
- Building props and
- Stage management
- Production assistant
- Administrative assistant
Interns will help with the general running of the program, including being present to assist during lunch and recess during our camps. Students may be assigned to a mentor teacher who will include them in the planning and teaching process of the production. We try to work with your interests to make the internship experience worthwhile for all of us.
