Interning with the Wooster Group

After being in New York for 3 weeks I was lucky enough to get an interview with my favourite theatre company the Wooster Group. I had written my honours thesis on the company and studied them intently throughout 2013. During my studies I swooned at the thought of meeting the Wooster Group's director and Co-founder Liz LeCompte as well as Kate Valk, Scott Shepherd and Ari Fliakos who have been performing in the company's productions for many years.

I arrived 10 minutes early to the Performing Garage, where the Wooster Group rehearse and perform their shows. At the end of my interview I was asked if I would like to be a General Intern and come in once a week on Mondays. I humbly said yes, but upon leaving the Performing Garage I was ecstatic.

This blog is to record my Monday interning days and I hope to encourage others to check out the Wooster Group's work either by following this blog, looking at their website or if you are in New York to go and see their work.

Arrivederci.
