TEACHING ARTISTS
​
CYS teaching artists lead workshops for high school students focusing on various aspects of Shakespeare performance and pedagogy, including voice, movement, text and character analysis, ensemble play, stage combat, and more. While there are no specific openings at the present moment, teaching artists are encouraged to email a letter of introduction and CV to 
manon@chicagoyouthshakespeare.org for future consideration.
INTERNS
CYS interns assist in every aspect of running a non-profit organization, including marketing, social media, fundraising, communications, special events, and production management. All CYS internships are volunteer positions, but travel stipends are available as needed. CYS also works with university intern programs to provide compensation. To inquire  about internship opportunities with CYS for the 2021/'22 season, please send a letter of introduction and resume to info@chicagoyouthshakespeare.org.
VOLUNTEERS
CYS welcomes volunteers throughout the year to assist with special events and performances, marketing, fundraising projects and other administrative tasks. If you are interested in joining CYS's volunteer community, please send your contact information and availability to josh@chicagoyouthshakespeare.org
