We will need a LOT of behind the scenes help to put on a quality production. If you are interested in helping in any of the following areas, please leave a comment or email grantstakemusical@gmail.com.
Production Assistant(s)
We need one or two people to coordinate all administrative functions including maintaining the cast lists, audition packets, and rehearsal schedules. Will make copies and keep notes. Will manage scripts and music. Will communicate with cast and crew over blog, email, and/or phone calls. Will not need to be at all rehearsals as much of the work will be done on own time.
Choreographer(s)
We need either a main choreographer and an assistant or a small team to co-choreograph the show and help characters with staging and movement. Will need to attend all rehearsals in March and April.
Orchestra
Exact details to be determined, but we will have a small orchestra of just bass and percussion to go with the 2 pianos. Check back for more info...
Set Construction / Scenery Artists / Scenic Carpenters
We are looking for a crew to help construct the sets and/or paint. There will be a few designated evenings and/or Saturdays in April to put all the scenery together.
Stage Manager(s)
We need one or two stage managers who will help things run smoothly on stage and during the production. Will help record blocking and cues. Will assist in communicating with the stage, lighting, and sound crew. Will make sure actors know when it is time to go on stage. Will need to attend all rehearsals in March and April.
Stage Mamas (or Papas)
We need a few parents who are not in the cast or crew to help with the Children's Chorus during the last week of rehearsals in April and during performances. Will help them with costumes, make-up, keeping them quiet, and help with their cues. We will rotate responsibility so you will still be able to attend performances.
Stage, Lighting & Sound Crew
We need a crew of people to help behind the scenes during production including scene changes, curtains, and preparing/cleaning up stage. Will also handle lighting and sound. Will need to start attending all rehearsals in the middle of April.
**** Costume Crew & Seamstresses
This show has a LOT of costume, so we need a lot of people. We need a crew of costume coordinators. Will help in costuming the characters including renting, finding and/or purchasing costumes and fabric. We need a group of people who can help the cast during dress rehearsals and performances with getting ready and assisting with any quick changes. We will also need seamstresses to sew costumes. Most of this will be done in your own time and not require attendance at rehearsals until the very end.
Hair & Make-up Crew
We need a group of people who will help with all aspects of hair and make-up for the show which will include applying make-up, styling hair, and keeping make-up area clean. These people will need to be available during dress rehearsals and performances.
Prop Crew
We need a few people to help find and coordinate props for the production. These people will not need to attend regular rehearsals, but will need to be a couple of people to help during dress rehearsals and performances and work with stage crew to manage use of props.
