Responsibilities include:

- Being on book and cueing the show

- Helping to set up a simple, basic technical rig

- Supporting the rehearsal room

- Being a collaborator

- Technical experience is an advantage but not essential

Rehearsal week: 18th - 22nd May

Fee is £600 for flexible working hours during the rehearsal and production weeks

Thank you!

The fourth edition of our Paper Props Disc will be available at the ABTT on the Stage Management Association stand this week. hope you find them as interesting as we do. 

They look brilliant - I will certainly look them up

Ho there technically proficient chums - I'm selling some stuff. A full list of tidy gear (I do look after my stuff with passionate anal retention) will appear on "the Ebay" at some time soon but the major player will be my Edirol V8 video mixer. I'm likely going to be asking for about £650 for it, it's original power supply and a nice little flight/brief case.

Like I say, there'll be other loot but this is probably the most exciting single item. So if this is something you crave, let me know. 

You know - just sayin'
