Backstage/Technical
​Leadership Design Positions

Please submit your application for leadership/design position to Mr. Faw by Friday, Jan 7.

The following backstage leadership/design positions are available:
  • Stage Manager/Assistant Stage Manager
  • Scenic Design
  • Costume Design
  • Technical Director
  • Lighting Design
  • Props Design
  • Publicity Design
  • Normally, the position of stage manager should be someone who is not in the cast of the show.  However, this is still not a normal year.  Ideally, the stage manager would be someone not on stage for the show, but that is not a requirement.  
  • Is there a position you are interested in but don't see here?  Submit an application for it!
  • Normally, these leadership/design positions would be filled by someone currently in the technical theatre class.  However, we are still not in a 'normal' year.  While it is preferable to have these leadership/design positions in the technical theatre class, that is not a requirement.
  • Please note:  You may apply for multiple positions that you are interested in, if you have the time to do them.  

Please submit the following no later than Friday, Jan 7 to be considered for a leadership/design position:
*  Your Theatrical Resume
*  A formal business letter (requesting the position, and detailing why you think you are qualified).

These should be emailed to Mr. Faw at afaw@ncmcs.org

Backstage FAQ's

Q:  I am interested, but I've never done anything backstage before.  Can I still work tech?
A:  Absolutely, we would love to have you backstage, even if you've never done it before.  We will teach you what you need to know along the way.


Q:  How often do we meet for backstage work?
A:  For the majority of January and February, we will meet 1-2 times a week after school, while rehearsals are occurring.  Two weeks before the show (the week starting Feb 14), we may meet more often.  We will have tech calls the weekend of Feb 19-20.  Production week (the week starting Feb 21), we will meet every day as we will be doing tech/dress rehearsals for the show, and these rehearsals will run later (potentially until 9:30 pm).

Q:  Do I have to be in a Technical Theatre Class to work backstage?
A:  No, anyone can work backstage as long as you are a Pinecrest student.  To be a leader or designer, it is very helpful to be the technical theatre class.
          Note:  If you are a senior and graduating early, you are not eligible to work on the show.

Q:  Does it cost anything to do the musical?
A:  We do ask that all students involved in the musical contribute a 'fair share' to help cover production costs that are not covered by ticket sales alone.  Details will be available shortly regarding the fair share.
