About The Program
The work experience program is available for six (6) individual school students who will take part in group activities.
The program covers event and venue management, ticketing, marketing and sound/lighting design.
Over the course of the week, the group will rotate through all departments within the Civic Theatre.
Using all of the resources and skills they learn in each department the students project for the week is to create their own event in theory.
On their final day (Friday), the students take over the theatre stage, working with our techs to present their events to the Civic Theatre team in the afternoon.
How To Apply
Upon submission, Work Experience Request Forms will be forwarded to Council's People & Culture Division.
The People & Culture Division will review all requests and forward to the Civic Theatre for consideration.
A council representative may contact the Careers Advisor / Student Coordinator to discuss the application.

If approved, prior to commencing their placement students will be required to contact their placement supervisor to confirm work arrangements.
Important note
The Civic Theatre Work Experience Program is highly sought after. Applications are assessed on genuine interest in theatre operations as detailed in the student's Cover Letter and Career Advisor's recommendation.
