Applicants should have a strong interest in professional stage management. Interns will work alongside AEA stage managers throughout all aspects of the rehearsal process. Interns will be involved in daily rehearsals, technical rehearsals, production meetings, and understudy rehearsals. There will be opportunities to observe the calling of shows, backstage operations, etc. The Old Globe is one of the country’s finest regional theatres, attracting nationally known actors, directors, and designers. The stage management internship is a full-time commitment, 5 to 6 days a week. Internship lengths vary so please see detailed listings above. Candidates should be at least 18 years old at the start of the internship. In order to comply with LORT/Actors’ Equity Association Guidelines for LORT Theatres, this position must be fully vaccinated for COVID-19 unless a medical or religious exemption would apply.
