We’re seeking a creative and technically skilled individual to design, implement, set up, break down, and operate all sound elements for three productions: two plays and a musical featuring a live band. You’ll be responsible for live mixing throughout each run, with cast sizes ranging from 3 to 14.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design and implement soundscapes, including live mixing for all productions.

Requirements:

• Experience with QLab software and wireless microphone systems (Shure and Sennheiser).
• A strong understanding of live sound mixing for both theatre and live musical performance.
• Flexibility and problem-solving skills to troubleshoot and adapt sound in real-time.

As a small non-profit, we offer competitive compensation within our market. This position is ideal for a motivated early-career professional eager to make bold artistic choices in an intimate, boundary-pushing theatre space.

Commitment:

• Availability for tech rehearsals, production meetings, and all show dates. The season includes two plays and one musical, running from:

An Act of God: January 10 - 26, 2025
How to Transcend a Happy Marriage: April 11 - 27, 2025
