I assist with any wardrobing tasks, such as distributing laundry or restocking, and any leftover time is spent assisting the shop with whatever they may need. Then, after dinner, I work backstage at a show. First, I preset any costumes needed for changes during the first act, then assist with those changes. At intermission, I set costumes for the second act, then assist with those changes. After the show, I collect the actors\u2019 laundry and put it in the wash.<\/p>\n<p>How have your Muhlenberg experiences helped you in this work?<br \/>I worked wardrobe on a dance production at Muhlenberg, and that experience definitely helped prepare me for my current internship. I practiced common wardrobing tasks such as checking in costumes, doing laundry after performances, and assisting with emergency repairs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"What does a typical day look like for you?I spend time in the costume shop, usually in the&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":231924,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[100269,100270,100271,100272,28,30,29,7866],"class_list":["post-231923","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-pennsylvania","tag-experiential-learning","tag-internships-and-externships","tag-italian-studies","tag-languages","tag-pennsylvania","tag-pennsylvania-headlines","tag-pennsylvania-news","tag-theatre"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/231923","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=231923"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/231923\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/231924"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=231923"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=231923"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=231923"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
