The Applause Society builds audiences for tomorrow with programmes for today's community.

ACCESS FOR YOUNG AUDIENCES
The Applause Society's Accessibility Programme reaches out to young theatregoers with mild to severe hearing loss by providing special sign-language interpreted performances of theatre shows. Most of these young people are first-time theatregoers. These services are available on demand with advanced notice and provided at no cost to the theatregoer.

DRAMA DIALOGUES
Drama Dialogue is an enrichment programme for Society members. These sessions, held at various times throughout the year, will offer our valued membership a chance to enrich their theatregoing experience by providing open discussions between the members and theatre
professionals. Aimed at curious, interested and intelligent theatre patrons, these moderated conversations will take place at the Annexe Gallery in Central Market. Refreshments will be served.

INTERNSHIPS
The Applause Society's Internship Programme offers a unique and challenging experience for qualified college students and recent graduates who are actively pursuing careers in professional theatre. Applause internships require that each intern be mature, self-reliant, articulate, able to work effectively in a highly collaborative environment and demonstrate competence in their specific area of interest.

Internships are unpaid and academic credit is awarded at the discretion of the intern’s college or university. The Applause Society does not provide housing or housing stipends. Applicants must be at least 18 years of age. Download Internship Application Form.
