Half-Way Through & Still Kickin'

Last night was the opening night of the The K of D, an urban legend and tonight is the show at Rainer Beach high school. Which means two nights in a row the interns are all coming together to support each other and all the hard work we have been doing at the Rep. We become more and more immersed in our jobs and it's nice to touch base.


I am just past being half-way done with my internship and already feel I have changed in many ways since of I have been here. I found myself speaking with two designers last night about when reviews will be coming out for The K of D, an urban legend. I knew who would write the reviews and when. I have more and more faces to put with the names I see everyday in the office.



I have been working as a Lobby Manager in the Front of House and at the Front Desk. Both have been great opportunities for me to see the theatre outside of the External Relations bubble. The staff here is so huge. At first it was overwhelming, now I find it full of life. There is much to learn here, not just skills to add to your resume or personal growth, but also things to learn about each unique person who is at the Rep. I am looking forward to the second half of my internship. I know there will be more obstacles, but there is much that has been done so far.
