Artistic Development: Internships
Former Synchronicity intern Jessyca Holland in Anton Acts Out
Synchronicity is dedicated to the development of young artists—particularly
young women.
To this end, we initiated an intern program in 1999. This program
is free-form but highly disciplined, driven by the needs and skills of the
particular artists. Think of it as a mentorship. Some participants work on a
show-by-show basis as a design assistant, assistant stage manager, assistant
dramaturge, etc. Others work with us in a long term internship in areas like
marketing, pr, fundraising and development. We have partnered with students
from Oglethorpe University, Agnes Scott, Emory and Spelman College, among
others, and can work with your school to facilitate receiving credit for your work.
In addition, we occasionally offer performance internships, where you can
work as an actor on a particular show as well as receive master classes,
one-on-one mentoring and fulfill crew duties.
Essentially, if you are smart, eager, punctual, inquisitive and play well
with others, we want to work with you. Synchronicity is a nurturing and
supportive environment in which to learn, and we want to support your growth
as an artist. We are also a great place to get to know dedicated, conscientious
and talented members of the working arts community, which in many cases quickly
leads to employment for our interns.
