[Cathy Hartenstein]

DEADLINE EXTENDED TO SEPTEMBER 1, 2009

The Cleveland Play House (CPH) internship program offers advanced training
opportunities in production and administration for students and young
professionals interested in a career in theatre. CPH interns learn directly
about their area of interest by engaging in the day-to-day activities of the
theatre and working alongside highly skilled theatre professionals. CPH
staff members serve as mentors to each intern to ensure they have every
chance for professional growth. This hands-on experience is tailored to
provide the maximum educational benefit to each participant. Interns become
an integral working part of the company and are required to work the regular
staff hours of the department in which they are placed (hours vary depending
on the department). These internships offer in-depth training and practical
experience in many areas of theatre. If you are a bright, creative,
reliable, and self-motivated individual with basic training and experience
in theatre, this internship is for you.
