SET CONSTRUCTION • We need a Lead person in this area. • Some of our sets will need to be modified, while others may need to be built. • We are also in need of someone willing to take on the role of “Material Gatherer” • De-Construction - we need a ‘strike the set crew’ and someone with a truck to help bring it back to the ‘barn’ • Of course, we need workers!

  10. SET PAINTING • We would love to have a Lead person in this area. • Many of the details will be drawn and will need a ‘paint by number’ crew • Painting Crew Artists will be necessary this year, as we have no artist on board. • We are also in need of someone willing to take on the role of “Material Gatherer” for paints and supplies. • Of course, we need helpers!

  11. COSTUMES • We need a Lead person in this area to work with the coordination of each COSTUME division. • Each major group of actors will require a costume parent…there will be 5 in all. • There are MANY costumes in storage for your creative shopping.

  12. PLAYBILL and PLAYBILL ADS • We need ONE person to use a preset Publisher program to design the Playbill. All info and past programs are made available. • It is important that we sell ads this year (as we have in past years) to support the production needs.
