Jobs & Internships

Guggenheim Entertainment strives to be an inclusive work environment and embraces a diversity of people, ideas, talents, and experiences. We highly encourage people of color, individuals with disabilities, and other historically underrepresented groups to apply. Guggenheim Entertainment’s commitment to producing the highest quality programming is dependent on building a community whose members come from diverse cultures, backgrounds, and life experiences. We join with a growing number of theatres in the movement to ensure that those who have been excluded historically – individuals from racial and ethnic groups, LGBTQ+ people, people with disabilities, and women – are at the decision-making table, reflected in our programming, and represented on our staff.
