Statement: All areas are open to students at the internship level, where the work/training is most intensive. PCPA offers one, two and term internships year-round in a professional regional theater setting ( 4 internships September to May and 25 internships June to September/October) working in a specific area of interest while making West Coast contacts. The two-year conservatory program is designed to introduce students to theater at a generalist level; each student works in all areas of either technical production or in acting. As a conservatory, PCPA can help prepare students to enter formal study at a University or for entry level positions in professional theaters.
