I'm surprised that for a company that works with Broadway would be so undemanding in their requirements. There isn't anything in there that would limit the number of unqualified applicants from applying which is only going to create more work for their human resources. In addition, if I was someone who was studying marketing or communications I don't know if I would want to apply for the company that didn't demand some sort of basic skills from me that were above and beyond the basic skills of any high school or college student. It makes me question the company's work or what I would get out of that internship.

This intern opportunity seems like a really approachable in into the Broadway world. It is nice to see that these options arise to take an entry level position on Broadway shows. Especially when considering the pursuits of summer opportunities of all of our peers. the offer did seem slightly vague however. this raises a question about the caliber of the work which would be offered. is this opportunity useful, or is it just a job anyone with no interest in theater could do, that just happens to be on Broadway?
