For ages 7 - 12, campers perform an adapted children's play at the Bangor Opera House. For ages 13 - 18, campers perform an adapted Shakespeare play on the outdoor waterfront site of Maine Shakespeare Festival. Intern Programs We offer this intensive ''job-shadowing'' project for students seriously interested in a career in professional theatre. Summer internships require 165 hours of work on Maine Shakespeare Festival 2000. School-year internships require 248 hours and a technical commitment on two productions over nine months time.
Internships begin in the fall or spring.
Many shows in our subscription season are also offered as daytime matinees for students. Schools receive group discounts, and an optional post-show discussion with theatre professionals. A great complement to any curriculum. Educators' Workshop Beginning in 1998, this is a special introduction to teaching Shakespeare for teachers and educators in connection with the Maine Shakespeare Festival.
