Internship opportunity

4Wall Entertainment is offering an internship at their UsedLighting.com branch. Check out the info here. And since it is in Las Vegas, I'm sure that there are tons of other opportunities to learn great things.

man what a great opportunity! If only I didn't live in eastern PA.....

The only thing I noticed is they don't give a date for the internship.

Noticed that myself, so I might contact them to make a more accurate post.

Judging from the description this would be an internship position that would be continuously filled. If you're interested, I'd go ahead and apply.

All right, here's the response about the internship.

The duration of the internship will be 90 days, and we are hoping to receive all applications by November 23rd.

We are planning on being a bit flexible with the chosen applicant regarding their start date, based on the fact that the person may need to make arrangements to make it out here to Las Vegas.

Thanks for the support, we really appreciate everyone on the forums there!

What's the time frame for this internship? It's not mentioned on the website.

I also have a question that I thought I might throw out there. Is it even possible to be considered for a permanent show if you are applying from say... Canada? Because I am working on my application now.

You can probably contact them as fast as I can to find specifics. As far as I know, you already have to have to have the ability to work in the United States to be considered for the internship (they don't provide working papers). I just post internships as I find them since many of them have such a short time frame to apply, I figure that I'll give CB members an edge to finding them in time.

Missed seeing two more for Cirque, but they are still active until February 17th: one technical, one stage management. Go to their jobs page to apply. Description of technical follows.
