Theatre Aspen
There are presently no open calls for submissions.
For nearly a decade, the Theatre Aspen Apprentice Program (TAAP) for aspiring theatre professionals has been offering the opportunity for students to gain hands on experience with professionals in their fields and the opportunity to observe and assist in the theatrical production process from start to finish. Apprenticeships are offered in areas including: Company Management; Costuming & Wardrobe; Development; Theatre Education; Lighting Design; Marketing & Content Creation; Music Direction; Performance; Sound Design; Stage Management; and Stagecraft & Production.
Apprentices will make valuable connections and develop career skills by working on the main stage, participating in special events, assisting in the administrative office and front of house and through available teaching opportunities in the Theatre Aspen School. While at Theatre Aspen, all apprentices will have the opportunity to work with creative team members and will attend weekly seminars taught by Theatre Aspen staff and other leading industry professionals. The Apprentice program culminates in a Showcase that the apprentice class completely conceives, produces, creates, and performs.
Apprentices will be in residence in Aspen, CO for the entirety of the Theatre Aspen summer season from mid-May through late-August. Select Apprenticeships offer the possibility to arrive earlier and to extend past the summer season for work on fall activities.
The Theatre Aspen Apprentice Program is generously underwritten by JESSICA AND JOHN FULLERTON, BARBARA AND JON LEE, and SANDY AND KENNY TATE.
