Education/Financial Opportunities: BTC provides emerging, mid-career, and career-changing diverse professionals paid opportunities to learn the theater-making process from leaders at the highest levels in executive, creative, producing, and administrative areas while developing a strong network for continued success and employment in the industry.

BTC’s flagship programming aims to support and allow for the time, space, and resources needed for individuals to grow their knowledge and build their skill set.

their mission is to reshape the working ecosystem for those who have been systematically excluded through the following pathways: 

1. Identifying the next generation of emerging talent, including those from dimensions of diversity currently underrepresented in the arts  

2. Implementing paid apprenticeship programs for emerging creatives  

3. Creating paid fellowships and/or leadership positions in theatrical offices and opportunities for their alumni on future Broadway and theatrical projects. 

their vision is to remove the “ILLUSION OF INCLUSION” in the American Theatre by building a sustainable, ethical roadmap and eliminating barriers to access and opportunity for the next generation of talent.

Broadway Across America and BTC have partnered to create a comprehensive, 14-week paid Apprenticeship program for college undergraduate juniors, seniors, recent college graduates, and early career professionals with a demonstrated commitment to promoting diversity in the theater. Applicants are welcomed from all fields of study, including arts administration, business, marketing, communications, finance, HR, theatre studies, and more. In-person office availability (flexible schedule) and virtual availability on Friday afternoon are required.
