Opportunities at Firehouse
FIREHOUSE LADDER APPRENTICESHIP
Firehouse Theatre is assembling a team of highly motivated and collaborative individuals who are interested in joining our Firehouse Ladder Program. Apprentices have opportunities to learn and work across production, performance, and management based on each participant's interests and Firehouse's production needs.
Expectations and schedule will be agreed on before beginning the program. Work hours are flexible and based on the needs of production, but expected to fall within 10-20 hours per week, for a period of at least one month. The Ladder Program is an unpaid educational opportunity. Apprentices must arrange and cover their own housing and travel expenses, as well as any college credit that may be available.
To apply please submit the following materials in a single PDF document: A current resume and a cover letter (a) introducing yourself, (b) stating your specific area of interest, (c) explaining why you think you'd be a good fit for Firehouse's Ladder Program, and (d) your schedule/availability.
Please submit all materials or questions to evial@firehousetheatre.org
