How do I get a job at a Broadway Theatre?
Experienced professionals suggest getting a job as an intern in a Broadway office. This sort of experience offers hands-on knowledge about the industry – far more specific and accurate than most academic programs. Most internships pay only $100 a week (clearly not enough to live on in NYC), but most offices will let you leave early to work a part time job at night. Some work as bartenders and waiters at night while interning during the day. As it turns out, the Broadway office usually will make you an offer for a full time job in a few months or weeks. You can also look on the several websites to inquire about internships, but do your research.
