We thought we'd check in on a former intern for her perspective. Here's what she had to say:
"When I was a Dragonkeeper my senior
year of high school, I dreamed that maybe one day I would be lucky enough to intern
at Nashville Children's Theatre. Actually working as a college intern at NCT was a total
dream come true and it was an experience that I will definitely never forget.
The theme of last summer’s camp was
“Unlock Imagination”. Every day during my internship, I witnessed the
confidence, skills, and imagination of children growing and developing right
before my very eyes. What I didn’t expect was that my
imagination would also be unlocked! Like the campers in class, I gained confidence that keeps me strong to this day.
This
amazing opportunity provided a chance
to work with talented teaching artists and a
wonderful group of fellow interns who share my passion for the arts, as well as
the most incredible education staff ever! Our
group of interns felt like a family by the end of the
summer and we still keep in touch.
I am so grateful for the wonderful
opportunity and all that I learned through this internship. I will always look
back on my time as an intern at NCT and know that it was one of the best
summers of my life and such a worthwhile way to spend my time. I can never
thank NCT enough for everything they have done for me and the impact they’ve
had on my life and the lives of everyone who steps through their doors."
