Announcing: Dear Earthling
21st September 2026
We are recruiting for a Costume & Production Assistant Intern to work on our new production Remember Romeo, during pre-production filming in December 2026, at Lancaster University.
This paid internship offers an exciting opportunity for an early-career or emerging arts professional from an under-represented background to work with us as we create Remember Romeo, a ground-breaking new adaptation of Romeo & Juliet.
This is a full-time internship of around 15 working days (the equivalent of three weeks) before, during and after the Remember Romeo pre-production filming week. Exact days and dates will be agreed upon offer of contract but the key dates are:
- Weeks beginning 30th November & 7th December (approx eight days total): Costume sourcing, prior to filming week.
- Week beginning 14th December (five days total): Costume supervision and production assistance during filming week.
- Week beginning 21st December (approx two days): Manage costume returns.
There is some flexibility on how the initial two weeks are delivered, which we anticipate would be remote working.
