DFE Abstract

Cayla spent ten weeks in the summer of 2015 as an intern at Stage Door Productions in Memphis, Tennessee. Stage Door Productions is a local, non-profit organization, and their aim is to promote theatre through performance, education and outreach. As an Art major and German minor, Cayla gained experience managing students, facilitating operations of the Summer Camps, updating and organizing the company Script/ Monologue Library, creating a digital database, and creating promotional videos for the education department, camps, and productions. This internship was designed with the support of the Entrepreneurship for the Public Good program, lead by Dr. Peter Hackbert, to aid in active learning outside of the classroom and into the career world. Cayla’s primary supervisor was Dr. Peter Hackbert and Kevin Gardner was her secondary supervisor. During Cayla’s presentation, she will share her learning and growth experience related to the EPG abilities that she acquired at Stage Door Productions
