Shadow Opportunities Application

The Fulton Theatre provides shadow opportunities for emerging professionals to apply skills acquired in the high school and university setting to a professional institution, to build upon those skills and to learn new ones.

  • Identify up to 3 appropriate focus areas for which you wish to be considered. Costumes/Wigs; Electrics/Sound; Stage Management; Company Management; Education/Outreach; House Management/Box Office; Development; Props; Scenic Construction/Painting; Marketing/Communications
  • A clearly articulated and focused personal statement goes a long way in helping us to place you in our program! Note that Fulton Theatre receives numerous Shadow applications each season. As our resources are limited, Fulton’s program is competitive. Applicants who seek a career exploration experience should address your interest in a career in the theatre arts. Consider the following questions: What is your eventual career goal? Why are you seeking a shadow experience at this time? And why specifically at Fulton Theatre? What do you expect to gain from your shadow experience?
  • On your application, list the due date of the experience (completion date), the number of hours you must complete, and detail your availability to complete the hours.
  • Education and Referencees

  • How do you know this reference?
  • If you are currently in school, name your school and your current grade level.
  • Parent/Legal Guardian Permission

    Volunteers and Shadow Experience Applicants must be 16 years old. If under the age of 18, parents must sign the application.
