Work Experience

Students in Years 11 and 12 are welcome to apply to undertake Work Experience with us.

Work Experience placements take place during one week in the year, between 9.00am and 4.00pm from Monday to Friday.  During the week, students will have the opportunity to participate in work across each major department in the company, including Artistic, Wardrobe, Production, Marketing and Administration.

We have chosen weeks throughout our year when the action is most exciting – production week!  Students will be a part of the Company during the final few days before a production opens or leaves on tour.  They will see firsthand how a performance comes to life on stage by observing rehearsals, assisting the production teams during bump-in, helping to prepare costumes, planning for the event, organising the box office and more.
