Alley Theatre Internships provide hands-on professional training for those planning to pursue careers in professional theatre production, arts administration, or non-profit marketing and management. Available for current students and recent college graduates, internships are educational opportunities that supplement a strong theatre education and act as a bridge for early career professionals. Interns participate in and observe a professional theatre environment – guided and directed by experienced managers and directors – and are entrusted with a great deal of responsibility.

Each year, interns work closely with Alley staff, artists and craftspeople to increase their skill-set, sharpen their business acumen, and learn instrumental theatre techniques and gain professional experiences in the theatre industry.

The Alley offers a range of options based on departmental capacity and intern availability. The Alley is not able to provide assistance with transportation or housing.

The Fitzpatrick Internship is the Alley’s paid Summer intern program. Fitzpatrick Interns receive a $200 weekly stipend, as well as parking and complimentary tickets to Alley productions.
