This programme is available to students at third level degree programmes in the EU and Türkiye. Students of theatre, cultural administration, acting, or any theatre-related subject, can come to Crooked House for a period of at least three months. They can stay for up to a year. Usually, most students choose to come here for 6 months. Many decide to apply to come for three months, and while they are here, they request an extension to stay for another three months.

​

The Student Traineeship programme is managed entirely by the student’s university. Each university receives a budget from the EU annually to run its Erasmus programmes. Students then apply to be part of whatever Erasmus programme they would like to do. The university has a number of application procedures, forms to be completed, an English test, and a deadline each year by which you should apply. All this information is available from your university’s International Office or the Erasmus Office. Usually the deadline is in the Spring.

​

We accept student trainees in September/October and again in January/February. We do not accept trainees in the summer, unless they are extending their previous traineeship with us.
