Internships

AIM High, Our Apprentice, Intern, Mentor program is aimed at high-school and college students interested in careers in the performing arts.

AIM High offers total immersion in technical production, directing, stage management, and acting through hands-on experience working directly with accomplished professional artists on a production, as it moves from rehearsal to opening night, and throughout the run of the show. Previous AIM High interns frequently appear in productions and move on to receive paid positions at our theatre.

Interns are eligible for community service hours. Undergraduate students can apply to the AIM High program as an independent study with coordination between the University and the Director of Education at Classic Theatre. We are currently accepting AIM High applications for the 2020-2021 season. Placement opportunities are limited.
