There are so many ways to get involved at FPCT!
If you are interested in any of the following opportunities, contact Richard Barber (Interim VP and Volunteer Coordinator) at richard@fpct.org.
Experience is always appreciated, but it is only required where noted.
STAGE MANAGER for Boeing-Boeing
Dates of commitment: October 27, 2013 – February 9, 2014 (with breaks for Holidays)
Experience: Greatly appreciated, but not required
The Stage Manager’s job has two parts. During rehearsals, s/he serves as the Director’s right-hand- (wo)man, supporting him (Josh Shoemaker) and the actors. Once the show opens, the Stage Manager takes charge, running each and every performance. Being Stage Manager is a pretty big commitment, but it is a very rewarding one that will teach you a great deal about the theatre itself. You will also learn a great deal about directing!
PROPERTY MASTER for Boeing-Boeing
Dates of commitment: mid-November – January 10 (intermittent)
Experience: Not required
The Property Master is charged with locating and securing all props for the show. Working in tandem with the Director and Stage Manager, s/he will work almost entirely outside of rehearsal in order to support the production as a whole. This is a great job for anyone whose schedule doesn’t allow them to work directly with the production (rehearsals and/or performances). You would be allocated a small budget and would be charged with keeping production costs as low as possible. Begging, borrowing, and (anything short of) stealing is encouraged! Boeing-Boeing is a sexy 1960s farce set in Paris. Finding some period items will be a fun challenge!
