“What made it so successful was that I was depended on as an intern and my contributions helped move things forward. It was such a valuable experience to work directly with the designers….. I got the chance to understand their color scheme and design choices. It was important for me to gain insight into their process. Also, working in the different fields made it clear what each person was responsible for and how the different job responsibilities overlapped. “
-- Garbo Grossman,  Costume Intern

 “I enjoyed the overall exposure to the inside workings of theatre. As a theatre patron I was just always taken up in the magic of the production I was watching. Now I understand the complexity and the contributions of each component of a production. As a team we provided an invaluable service to the overall possibility of Showtime! “

“When you intern, its all about the people you work with. I enjoyed every minute of my summer at Theatricum not only because the place itself is so magical, but also because the people are so friendly and appreciative. If you want to laugh as you learn, then Theatricum is where you want to be.”

“As an intern with the Youth Drama Camp, I had the amazing opportunity of introducing kids to Shakespeare and professional theatre….. at the same time playing an integral role in helping them feel confident in an ensemble and successful and proud at performing in front of their friends and family. ….as an intern you not only have the challenge and opportunity to help facilitate this but the chance to be a friend, mentor, and role model to your campers. “
– Anne Nemer, 2006 Professional Acting Intern
 
“…as a student I was truly unaware of how much I was learning because of how much fun I was having. The way Theatricum blends social responsibility, learning Shakespeare, dozens of different techniques and SO much fun, produces this inspiring and powerful effect within all of its campers. As my role changed from camper to intern teacher to Group Leader, I was able to work with and be part of this magical system from the other side. From this, I understood even more, the importance of creating this atmosphere of fun and laughter to better achieve goals of learning and growth. “
—Henry Garf, Teaching Intern
