internship in Theatre Design
Hello everyone!
My name is Michael van der Laan and I am currently in the final year of the Theatre Design program at Albeda College / MBO Theatre School Rotterdam.
As part of my final year of study, I am looking for a fun and creative internship from November 22, 2026, to May 10, 2027, where I can further develop my skills and gain professional experience within the theater, entertainment, or creative production world.
My main interests lie in costume design and realization, props, set design, and set construction. I particularly enjoy working on projects where I can combine various disciplines and transform an initial idea or sketch into something that can actually be used on stage.
I have experience working with textiles, leather, EVA foam, thermoplastic materials, and various other materials. Additionally, I have experience with sewing, needlework, embroidery, painting, model making, and technical drawing. I enjoy experimenting with different materials and like coming up with creative solutions when making costumes, props, and set elements.
During my studies, I worked on various individual and group projects. I also held the responsibility of Head of Costumes for a theatre production. In this role, I was involved not only in designing the costumes but also in planning, expenses, inventory, and the practical realization of the costumes.
Outside of school, I also continue to develop my creativity through costume making, cosplay, LARP, illustration, and digital design. Creating characters, costumes, and fantasy worlds has been an important part of my creative development for many years.
For my internship, I would like to work at a theater, production company, costume department, studio, festival, film or television production, or another creative organization. I hope to work on real productions there, learn from experienced professionals, and further develop my craftsmanship.
I live in the Netherlands, but I am also open to internship opportunities abroad.
