Each show requires people working back stage to make things happen correctly on stage. Responsibilities range from cleaning before a performance, preparing the set, coordinating special effects, Fly operation, and moving set pieces.

Some jobs can be shared with another person, and some require that you are there every performance and throughout tech week prior to the show opening. This is a job that requires a strong commitment, and the ability to follow a script.

From the novice, the new to our stage, or the most seasoned actor, all are welcome to audition.
