INFUSE Internships
Katharsis Media’s Internship Program is meant for motivated individuals who are looking to bridge the gap between their academic experience and a career in theatre or film. Our interns are vital members of this small production company, working alongside a dedicated staff of artists, administrators, technicians and designers. Interns will gain practical experience, knowledge, and industry contacts. Katharsis Media encourages interns to learn the basics behind all areas of theatrical and film production by varying intern assignments throughout the program.
As a Katharsis Media Intern, you will gain broad exposure to many areas of theatre and film production and work with a focus in your field of interest. You will be expected to work as a member of the backstage run crews for each of the Katharsis Media productions this summer. Interns will also have the opportunity to audition for acting roles, if desired.
We currently have internship programs in the following focus areas:
Acting for Film and Stage
Musical Theatre
Theatre/Film Production
Technical Theatre
Business and Marketing
Stage/ Production Management
You may now apply for:
Summer Internships (June 3-August 9)
Academic Year 2019-2020 (August 15-May 15)
Academic Year interns receive full scholarships to our Musical Theatre or Film Professional Year programs. Audition is required for placement and casting purposes.
A very limited number of paid internships are also available. Paid interns receive a weekly stipend, full scholarships to our Musical Theatre or Film Professional Year programs and opportunities to teach and create side by side industry professionals.
