[NEohioPAL] Fw: Run Crew Positions for SISTER ACT are available at Karamu House

[richard morris via NEohioPAL]

 When you come into the theater, you have to be willing to say, "We're all here to undergo a communion, to find out what the hell is going on in this world." If you're not willing to say that, what you get is entertainment instead of art..... and poor entertainment at that.

As a member of the run crew for Sister Act, you are an important and integral part of the production team. It is crucial to the success of the rehearsal and performance process that you conscientiously fulfill your responsibilities.
These examples are intended to help you understand your duties during the rehearsal and performance process—it is not intended to be comprehensive, and the Technical Director or Production Manager may have other specific assignments for you. Duties specific to the Backstage Run Crew include but are not limited to:   
   - Preparing the stage for rehearsal or performance, including sweeping and/or mopping as needed;    

   - Preparing any special or consumable props before tech or performance;    

   - Placing (“pre-setting”) or checking the preset locations of all props and set pieces before tech or performance;   

   - Tracking props during tech or performance and making sure they are in position as needed by actors—this includes maintaining the prop table;
   - Working with the Fly System;
   - Moving Scenery on and off stage;    

   - Performing mobile duties (looking for actors, etc.) so that the ASM/Crew Head can stay on headset;    

   - Cleaning up onstage or backstage as needed after tech or performance;   

   - During strike, performing tasks as assigned by the Technical Director.    


Backstage Run Crew should dress in black clothes suitable to active work, including black shoes.
