”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 use with modern day presentation. The on stage complement is some 15 - some great 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 theses 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......... Peter – (GAFFER)
