Vineyard Theatre

Marketing Intern

June - August 2019 • New York City, NY

What I liked

I liked seeing how an actual Off-Broadway theatre company worked behind the scenes, particularly in the off season. I was able to sit in on many actual production meetings regarding the festival they were hosting at the time. I learned a lot about the Marketing process as well from the Marketing director of the company.

What I wish was different

I wish I had more to do, or that the workload had been more easily distributed. For the first month of the internship, I rarely was assigned tasks, even though my supervisor was so busy. Instead of that resulting in her giving more for me to do, it meant I was hesitant to tell her when I had finished something and to ask for another task. I felt like a was a bother to her.

Advice

Ask questions and offer your expertise. They hired you for a reason, and not every company wants interns!
