Production Archive
Since 2003, Intern Co.'s mission has been to question the notion of what kind of theatre young adults can produce when left to their own creative devices. From simple Shakespeare, to building a pool into the stage, to writing an original score and script, to smell-o-vision, to fully choreographed, gender-bending action comedy in space & much much more-- the Intern Co. tests the limits of sea, sky & summer theatre.
