  • Attending Production Meetings as necessary, as well as attending all technical rehearsals

  • Overseeing and assisting in all necessary setup and breakdown

  • Managing expendable inventory, i.e. batteries, mic tape, gaff tape, etc. , and will report to the Production Manager when supplies need to be replenished

Preferred skills and other requirements include but are not limited to:

  • Enthusiasm for live event production
  • Have demonstrated success in previous production work, with a focus on sound design, soundboard operation, and live mixing in a theatrical setting

  • Familiarity with Qlab and Behringer Digital Mixers

  • Detail-oriented with the ability to work independently and as part of a team

  • Willingness to perform, at times, physically demanding tasks, with the ability to lift items potentially weighing up to 50 pounds
