Tutorials and Internships

Atlanta is a major metropolitan area and it affords many different theatrical experiences. Currently forty-two theaters operate in the city; some of those in addition to presenting their own work also stage touring productions that feature nationally recognized artists. Internships have been arranged for advanced students to work with some of these theaters, including the Georgia Shakespeare Festival, the Alliance Theatre, Horizon Theatre Company, and Out of Hand Theater. Internships also have been arranged in major theaters around the country.

Individual tutorials on a variety of topics can be arranged between advanced students and particular instructors.

Internships at professional theaters in Atlanta can be arranged for academic credit on an individual basis.
