Apprenticeship Program

Round House offers apprenticeships designed to offer on-the-job training for committed, highly motivated individuals who are ready to embark upon a professional theatre career. Apprentices are directly exposed to the theatre’s daily operations and given the opportunity to learn alongside an accomplished company of artists, teachers, and administrators. In addition to their specialized training, apprentices gain additional insight into workings of a professional regional theatre through regularly scheduled seminars led by guest speakers and members of the theatre’s senior staff.

The program generally requires a 10-month commitment beginning in early August and concluding in late June. Apprentices receive an hourly wage and are expected to work 25 to 40 hours a week, based on the needs/schedule of their department. We actively encourage people from a variety of backgrounds with different experiences, skills, and stories to join us and influence and develop our working practice. The apprenticeship program is a training program, and significant prior experience is not required.

Apprenticeships for the 2022-2023 season will be offered in Artistic, Education, Stage Management, Arts Administration/Marketing, and in our Costume Shop. See complete descriptions of the apprenticeships here. To apply, submit a cover letter and resume to the Round House Theatre Education Department at Education@RoundHouseTheatre.org
