CREWS INFORMATION & APPLICATION

CREWS: Running/Set, Light/Sound, Hair/Make-up, Ushers

What is the crew?  Crew members are the behind-the-scenes members of a show that make the cast members come to life - building and moving set pieces, running the lights and sound, organizing costumes and make-up, and helping the audience to find their seats and get their programs.

What is expected of crew members? Crew meets separately from the cast at the beginning, since they have specific things they need to do. Because of the concerts that take place in December, we aren’t able to be on the stage to do work until January, so crews won’t begin meeting (except for one day to get contracts and calendars) until after winter break.

What types of crews are there? 

1. Running/Set Crew members help to create the set and work on stage to move set pieces at scene changes during the show 
2. Light/Sound Crew members help the high school student directors to run the light and sound boards
3. Hair & Make-up Crew members help the cast before the show and assist with costume changes
4. Ushers work as ticket scanners, people to pass out programs, and helpers for people who need to find their seats

When do I need to attend?
