About the Apprentice Program

DEPOT THEATRE APPRENTICE PROGRAM & SUMMER WORKSHOP SERIES

We are currently working on setting up the 2009 Apprentice program - and pleased to announce our growing partnership with Shakespeare-in-the-Park to offer intensive classical theatre training to our Apprentices! Please check back for updates or feel free to email us with questions or comments at info@depottheatre.org.

2009 Apprentice Program

Choose your summer of fun and learning with everything from a one-day workshop to a summer-long experience.  Participation by Essex County students is free, though donations greatly help offset the expenses of the program.  Individual workshops may carry a modest materials fee. Applications are available at the Depot Theatre.

Shakespeare in the Parks 2009 - details TBA

The Depot Theatre Apprentice Program: Ages 8-14

The Depot Theatre Apprentice Program is available to children 8-14.  The Apprentice Program is a process oriented theatre experience that nurtures individual creativity and develops positive group dynamics and ensemble work.  Self-expression and positive self-esteem are important goals of the Apprentice experience.  Through a series of workshops and demonstrations, participants will develop basic acting skills that engage the mind, voice, and body; they will learn to focus their energy, work creatively, cooperatively and respectfully and have fun!

Each year, Depot Theatre Apprentices present a final project to the public.  


 Apprentices are often invited to attend main stage rehearsals and assist as ushers during performances.   

Friday Workshop Series: Ages 8 and older

Sign-up for just one workshop or all!  Learn about what goes into producing a play from the professionals who make it happen.  Workshop subjects may include stage management, set and lighting design, costumes and make-up.  Please note: Depot Theatre Apprentices will participate in this weekly workshop series to which others may attend with advance registration. 

Please note that Apprentices may also be asked to participate in a performance celebrating Westport's Heritage Day Festival.

Creative Drama Play-lab: Ages 5-7


Imagination is your ticket to a world of theatre fun.  Creative drama games and exercises will inspire a life-long relationship with Theatre while engaging students in a magical dramatic adventure.
