<p>This is an apprenticeship with a professional theatre for 11 weeks. It will be a completely different experience than, say, spending six to eight weeks working on a play with a typical community theater (of course, some community theaters are far from “typical”, and do work on a par with professional theaters).</p>
<p>You will be able to meet theater professionals and get a taste of how professional theater works, which may be quite a surprise to you if you are only used to high school or community productions.</p>
<p>But also bear in mind that one reason they have this apprenticeship is to get extra crewmembers for their shows. But that’s only part of it, there is a lot of other stuff going on.</p>
<p>I agree with those who say “don’t do something just to put in on your resume”. Do this if you think you will enjoy it, and it will help you meet theater people, and it will help you learn more about theater.</p>
