Internships

Internships are crucial for students to apply their theoretical knowledge to practical situations, deepening their understanding of the theatre world outside of Mercer. Working with our vibrant local community theatre scene at Macon Little Theatre or Theatre Macon, students are asked to rise to the challenges and demands of the industry. This experience helps them develop important skills, build connections with professionals, and network to deepen their understanding of the entertainment profession.

Undergraduate Research

Mercer Theatre students work closely with faculty to explore and create their own research through the collaborative process of production. Our productions allow frequent public opportunities to disseminate creative research, and our program supports opportunities for students to share creative scholarship at several state, regional, and national conferences each year.
