WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — Williamstown Theatre Festival, under the direction of Mandy Greenfield, artistic director, is now accepting applications for its prestigious training programs for the 2015 season, which give invaluable on-the-job learning opportunities for performers, directors, writers, designers, technicians and administrators.

Among the luminaries who started their careers as part of Williamstown Theatre Festival’s training programs: Kate Burton, Dick Cavett, Patricia Clarkson, Jill Clayburgh, John Conklin, Tom Fontana, Jennifer Grey, Michael C. Hall, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Kate Hudson, Peter Hunt, Allison Janney, David Korins, Santo Loquasto, Gwyneth Paltrow, David Hyde Pierce, Christopher Reeve, Christian Slater, Kiefer Sutherland, George C.
