"Backstage" people reqired - Guys n Dolls Revue Company - Brisbane (Redcliffe)
Fri, 2 Jan 2009, 06:17 am”Guys n' Dolls Revue" is the name of a small "cabaret" group here in northside Brisbane - Redcliffe area.
We are looking for backstage/ FOH people to join a fun up-and-coming musical theatre company...........
We will beginning our season for mid year - a run of some 10x weekend "musical review" 3hour run type gigs.
We have a team of "back stagers" but are in need to develop and train up people to a higher standard of quality.
We need 2x follow spot operators to start with.
Anyone interested in stage work from building to setting etc also required.
We have a Lighting Tech but could use another; we have a Sound Tech who again could make use of a stage buddy.........
We could do with an enterprising Props person.
It’s all very light by theatre standards but is fun and is what we make it so it’s a great "entry" level for aspirants.
Our stage is about to be re-jigged with new lighting bars etc so some hands and feet here could be useful – preferably good hands and no two-left feet!
My interest is in staging and lighting and I am working up an application of intelligent lighting with modern day setting presentation.
The on stage complement is some 15 - some great singers, movers and shakers - to give some idea of what and who we are – we have a great little muso combo now………
Last Season was my first with GnD having had many years pro-am experience. They are an enterprising group with lots of potential………
I started life off in theatre along these lines way back in the 50's and it would be good to get a young-set team together who can "run" the shows in a professional manner - bring new ideas and applications - a great place to start.
I am keen to train the willing and interested person(s) before my final curtain – as in retiring - passing on the good oil
etc.........
