Each intern is required to log 40 hours of their internship to redeem a full class credit. Our preference is that interns choose a consistent weekly shift, but the duration of the shift is at the discretion of the intern and their supervisor.
Do you offer any supplementary educational opportunities to your interns?
Every individual who completes an internship will be awarded an 8-week class of their choice, as long as the chosen course is not already sold out. Interns may be able to start the class of their choice before the internship obligation is completed as long as they are willing to pay partial tuition if the internship obligation is not met.
Do you offer monetary, housing, and/or travel compensation?
DCC is unable to offer monetary, housing, and/or travel compensation.

Do I need to have previous experience to apply?
Having previous experience as a student or performer at Dallas Comedy Club will improve your chances of being selected for an internship, but it is not a requirement. We evaluate each candidate’s previous involvement at DCC (including participation at jams, open mics, and other free activities) as well as their professional resume and application.
We encourage you to apply for any and all internships that interest you. In some cases we may be able to provide on-the-job training, so don’t be shy! Apply for anything that interests you.
Are there opportunities for advancement within the organization?
Our internship program is geared towards allowing students to pursue their comedy training through classes at DCC. Employment at Dallas Comedy Club is not guaranteed following completion of an internship. If you are looking for a job at the club check out this page!
What type of office environment is it?
The office, or rather the theater, is a business casual, creative environment. We encourage interns to join our community with a sense of joy, enthusiasm, and authenticity that they’d bring to a new group of friends. We accept all individuals, regardless of sexual orientation, race, or gender identity, and we understand that there is never a ‘one size fits all’ that can cover the needs and expectations of any individual who decides to intern with us.
