Interns
will be integrally involved in the duties of each department, working
alongside THE ACADEMY OF ARTS professional staff, artists,
and technicians to gain real hands-on experience in a full-time ministry
of professional sacred drama. Interns
will focus on one specific area of interest, but will also be involved
in other areas, as all departmental duties slightly overlap.
For
questions concerning lodging, call the office at 1-800-620-9997 during
business hours. College
credit will be given for all full-time interns.
Internships are offered in the following areas:
-
Acting
-
Costuming
– Make-up Artistry
-
Technical
Production
-

Design and Construction -- Properties
-

Assistant – Marketing
We
are looking for creative, dedicated, responsible, self-motivated,
Christ-honoring individuals with basic experience in ministry, and a
desire to serve the Lord with their various gifts.
This program is certainly not for everyone.
It is a rigorous pace, an intense
atmosphere, and requires much dedication and stamina.
Each intern will leave with a much broader knowledge of
every aspect of the craft. All
full-time interns will be involved in both on-stage and behind the
scenes work, including some counseling responsibilities after the
productions, and are expected to attend all rehearsals and performances
6:00 - 10:30 p.m.(M,T,Th,Fr,Sat). Exceptions can be made for
pre-arranged absences.
Interns
receive invaluable experience working alongside professionals and
assisting them on the stage, in the scene shop, the control room,
recording studio, costume shop, and make-up room.
Plus, they will perform in GOD MEANT IT FOR GOOD - the story of Joseph and his brothers,
a full-scale, professional, sacred production in the LOGOS
THEATRE more than 30 times! Individuals
enrolled in the program are mentored by seasoned professionals
who are dedicated to using their talents for the Lord.
As they are mentored, they are gradually presented with more and
more responsibilities and opportunities as they prove themselves.
THE ACADEMY OF ARTS has been training young people for
over 35 years to use their talents for the Lord, and in this new
Theatre, we are determined to further that impact on many lives by
offering this experience to dedicated individuals that they might understand more deeply our
unique philosophy of
sacred drama, and be inspired and equipped to "Make the Bible Come
Alive" through powerful biblical drama.
