Wanted: Technical Manager
I’m looking for a London-based technical manager for the London premiere and initial tour dates of my upcoming show, Comeback Special, a peculiar re-enactment of Elvis Presley’s 1968 Comeback Special. The show has an in-the-round set up, and therefore specific lighting and sound design as well as some projection, so some experience and confidence in all these areas is a necessity. More information on the show can be found here.
Basic Duties:
-Participate in the planning process between now and March 2016 (this won’t involve a heavy time commitment, but will involve equipment hire and advising on logistics)
-Manage all get-ins and get-outs
-Operate lighting, sound and projection for the show
-Drive a van (must have driving license)
-Liaise with venue technical departments on requirements and timings
-Being nice and fun to work with
Performance Dates:
-22-26 March, London premiere at Shoreditch Town Hall (get in from 21 March). There will also be 2-3 London rehearsal dates in early-mid March, TBC.
-10 May, tour date
-15 May, tour date
The show will hopefully have a life beyond the initial Spring 2016 dates, so there is potential for an ongoing role, but initially we are looking for someone to commit to the Spring 2016 dates.
Fee:
Please quote your day rate when when applying. This is a funded project and will be paid to a mutually agreed industry standard rate.
Please drop me an email by the end of 4 January 2016 7th January (date extended) outlining relevant experience and send a current CV: greg@gregwohead.com. I look forward to hearing from you.
