Gamm Summer Intensive

Hello!

For those of you who I have not yet had the pleasure of meeting, my name is Kate Hanson. I am the Associate Education Director at The Gamm Theatre in Warwick, Rhode Island. I am writing to you about an exciting summer internship opportunity that we hope you could pass along to anyone who may be interested.

GSI (Gamm Summer Intensive) is a four-week theater training program for high-school students from Rhode Island and Southern New England, focused on performing and learning Shakespeare. We are currently looking for talented and passionate college interns to join us throughout our program. Interns will receive a hands-on theatre education experience working at a professional theatre, as well as develop their skills in their desired field. Intern positions include: Assistant Directors, Acting Coaches, Stage Managers, and Costume Designers. If you, or someone you know, are interested in any of these fields, please feel free to pass along my email address (kate@gammtheatre.org) or phone number, (401) 723-4266 ext. 122. 

ACTF Hotel Information

ONLY $1 FOR THE CHANCE TO WIN!!!

HI EVERYONE! 

YOU have the chance to win the BEAUTIFUL Little Mermaid themed dream catcher! 

1 ticket for $1
5 tickets for $3

For a class assignment, we were split into two groups and given the task of raising money! The group that wins gets to keep ALL of the class’s earnings and donate the money to whatever organization they would like! 

Please help us win! We are hoping to raise money for two different causes.

We are trying very hard to help Attitude Dance Academy in their time of need. There was a tragic fire at the dance studio leaving them in need of our help!!! If we win this assignment, we will be sending them our earnings to help them rebuild and keep dance alive in the hearts of so many students and families! Please help us keep dance alive! 

We are also hoping to give a portion of the money to Day One , an organization that works daily to help victims of human trafficking. As many of you know the Rhode Island College Dance Company has been working to bring awareness of this issue through our show, “End It!” 

In hopes to raise this money we are raffling this beautiful Ariel dream catcher, made by 🌙Sweet Dreams by Angela, Brooklyn Toli's sister!!!

 We are raffling off this dream catcher for 1 ticket for $1 and 5 tickets for $3!

 You can Venmo @Brooklyn-Toli or give me or Brooklyn, cash in person.

Thank you for your participation we will be drawing tickets on February 19th so stay tuned!!

Good luck everyone!!
