Misc: DCTC seeks dedicated applicants who will strive to participate in the
most professional and positive manner possible. These internships involve long
hours, hard work and hands-on experience. Internships are arranged for
full-season (August-May), half-season or per-production basis. Pending
qualifications, limited stipends or housing may be available in some
departments.
LIGHTING DESIGN INTERNSHIP:
Ideal for a student desiring to complement his/her educational background with
practical experience while working towards a career as a professional lighting
designer. The intern works with resident and guest professional staff members
during the season. Focus is placed on drafting, equipment maintenance,
electrics, special effects, and organization as well as any special projects
that may be necessary for the specific needs of a production.
SCENE PAINTING INTERNSHIP:
The intern is expected to have background experience in scene painting
methods. The DCTC offers an opportunity for the intern to gain knowledge of
techniques used in thrust, proscenium and in-the-round theaters. The student
will be challenged with the need to find creative solutions to unconventional
design problems using both experimental and traditional techniques.
TECHNICAL PRODUCTION INTERNSHIP:
Available only to the most motivated student whose career goal is Technical
Direction. The student will work in a master/apprentice relationship with the
DCTC Technical Director, Shop Foreman, and Master Carpenter, learning a
variety of disciplines ranging from fiscal management to creative invention of
scenic solutions. A strong background in all areas of scenic construction is
necessary.
PROPERTIES INTERNSHIP:
Almost every skill and discipline that is found in the theatre can be used to
advantage in the prop shop. Because of the intimate nature of the DCTC
theaters all props must be exquisitely crafted and finished. The intern will
use techniques in welding, vacu-forming plastics, painting, carving, furniture
construction and upholstery, and other craft skills.
SOUND INTERNSHIP:
The intern will learn the various aspects of sound design, ranging from live
recording sessions, recorded music and effects, to the mixing of vocals and
sound during a performance. The intern will work closely with the artistic
staff and gain experience working in each of the different theaters of the
complex.
SCENE DESIGN INTERNSHIP:
This internship is of interest to the scene design student wishing to improve
graphic skills in architectural drafting, model building and painting while
gaining experience working with both resident and guest designers from around
the world. Intern responsibilities will include CAD drafting, model building,
design and technical research in scenic, prop and scene painting areas.
STAGE MANAGEMENT/PRODUCTION INTERNSHIP:
Production interns work closely with professional stage managers organizing
daily schedules, conducting rehearsals, attending design and production
meetings, and focusing on the detail work surrounding productions. In addition
to supporting the rehearsal process, the intern will perform a backstage
assignment as a member of the running crew once the show moves into the
theatre. This internship requires a full-time commitment by the applicant.
Interested applicants should send a cover letter and resume to: Dan McNeil,
Denver Center Theatre Company, 1101 13th Street, Denver, CO 80204, dmcneil@dcpa.org.
