Tanner Holley 鈥�16 interned at a non-profit theater company.
This summer has been a learning experience in a multitude of ways, and I definitely enjoyed every minute of it. For the last three months, I have been interning at Ping Chong + Company, a small non-profit theater company that specializes in creating pieces of work that help tell the stories of those without a voice (i.e. being black in America, or growing up Muslim in a post-9/11 America). The most exciting thing I did as an intern for PCC was probably sitting in on and helping out with rehearsals for an upcoming show PCC is creating entitled 鈥淭he Alaska Project.鈥� As both an actor and an artist, it was interesting to learn about the company鈥檚 creative process and what all goes in to making a show鈥揺verything from grant applications to making a puppet out of rope and tape! All in all, I had a wonderful time interning at PCC and living on my own in New York and I wouldn鈥檛 trade a minute of it!
