THERE WILL BE NO INTERNSHIP PROGRAM IN 2011

After 7 years of running the Zen Zen Zo Internship Program, the company is taking a break in 2011.  The Internship will recommence from 2012, running from July-November.  Applications for the 2012 Internship will be due in Feb 2012 (for International candidates) and April 2012 (for Australian candidates).  The brochure will be available from mid-2011.

In 2011 we will however be offering 2 Internship placements for a Producer and an Administrator from January-July. These positions will be mentored in an on-the-job capacity by Artistic Director Lynne Bradley, Company Manager Mary-Ann Vale, and Producer Hannah Myers. 

There will be no fee associated with the 2011 Internship Secondment positions.

The selected applicants will work in the Zen Zen Zo office two days a week (Monday + Wednesday/Thursday) for six months from January-July, 2011.  In addition, the two Interns will also participate in 5 seminars with the Artistic Director in the areas of Administration, Producing, Marketing, Grant Writing, and Finance.  During this time all Zen Zen Zo actor training will be available to the Interns free of charge if they wish to attend (including Stomping Ground, Winter Stomp, Physical Actor Training and Butoh).
