Tell us about your theatrical performance and training experience, any lessons or classes you may take, if you’re a part of a college/university degree program or a recent graduate. What are you hoping to get out of an apprentice program? We’d also love to know about your non-theatrical interests! Do you have any pets? What’s your favorite ice cream flavor? We’re so excited to learn about you.
