Internships
We encourage every theatre major to undertake a professional
internship at least once during their four-year undergraduate
education. Participating students work for a minimum of 20 hours
per week for a period of 15 weeks, for which they receive six hours
of credit. During the internship, the student keeps a daily record
of work as well as reflective comments on the learning experience.
Butler Theatre internships fall into two categories:
- Semester internships with the Indiana Repertory
Theatre
- Summer internships with theatre companies across the nation and
abroad
Internships are available in a wide variety of areas including
the following,
- costume/makeup
