Arts Educators teach ages PreK – age 20 in KIDSTAGE exploratory, acting, and musical theatre classes and camps. Educators have a passion for working with young students, to facilitate learning in theatre skills and life skills.

Arts Education Internships include a minimum of 15 hours per week spent in the classroom assisting an experienced theatre arts educator. Most Arts Education Internships are in the summer for six to eight weeks during summer camps, where interns experience all age groups and all subjects available from KIDSTAGE. Ideally the internship culminates in the intern successfully creating and implementing a learning plan throughout a full week of camps as lead instructor.

The internship includes a small stipend to reimburse expenses.

Production Managers oversee the entire production from hiring of the production team to striking the show. They collect and gather important paperwork, run production meetings, coordinate parent and student volunteers, organize and distribute marketing materials, and assist with flow of communication between production team members. Production managers are highly organized, knowledgeable about a wide range of theatre disciplines, proficient with Microsoft Office, and capable of seeing the big picture and being objective without missing the details.

Production Management interns should expect 20–40 hours per week of hands-on experiential learning during rehearsal times. Weekends and evenings required during tech week. The internship includes a small stipend to reimburse expenses.
