2020/21 Apprentices and Assistants

We’re so pleased to welcome this talented line-up of artists into our 2020/21 Apprentice/Assistant program. Originally slated to work with us on our 20/21 Mainstage and Warehouse productions, these artists have pivoted to new and innovative training opportunities at Royal MTC. Together with each artist, we’ve crafted individualized work plans to ensure that our commitment to their training can still be fulfilled this season.
