    Brown University Department of Theatre Arts and Performance Studies Production Director and Stage Manager, Barbara Reo [email protected] (401) 863-3284 office TA3 Run Crew Information Sheet Hello and welcome to Run Crew for TAPS. Each semester, TA-3 students serve as the backstage and technical crew for one of the department’s productions that take place on one of the three stages (Stuart Theatre, Leeds Theatre and Ashamu Studio) of The Catherine Bryan Dill Center for The Performing Arts or at Rites & Reason at Churchill House. These productions include shows produced by Sock & Buskin, Senior Slot, Dance Concerts, and Rites & Reason Theatre. Everything you will need to know about serving as a member of a run crew is detailed in this information sheet. In addition, (when possible) you will have a two-hour orientation prior to the beginning of the technical rehearsal process to answer any of your questions and alleviate any of your concerns. Introduction The run crew for our shows executes all backstage action. The stage managers and assistant stage managers, with the help of our designers, our costume shop manager (Ron Cesario), our technical director (Tim Hett), and many others organize backstage activity. Specifically, they figure out how to coordinate scene changes, the movement of props on and off stage, the flying in and out of curtains, costume changes, and the movement of costumes from the dressing room to the backstage area during the performance. While the stage manager remains in the lighting booth to call the show and the assistant stage managers are on headset backstage, supervising the crew and communicating with the stage manager, the run crew (you) will be the ones actually assisting with the costume changes, moving props backstage so they are ready for the actors, executing the scene changes during blackouts or in between scenes and flying the curtains in and out as needed.

Possible additional crew include: • one or more Board Operators • one or more Spot Operators • one or more assistants for hanging/focusing lights • one or more “stage walkers”. LIGHTING DESIGNER BEFORE REHEARSALS BEGIN: • Read the script and create a draft Lighting Plan of the show, paying attention to the time of day, the seasons and any special effects mentioned in the script. • Meet with the Director to review the draft Lighting Plan and discuss the Director’s intent for overall tone and how to support each scene with lighting. • Meet with the Production Team to solidify dates of: § Paper Tech § Dates/times to hang and focus lights that will not conflict with set work § Dry Tech § Costume Parade § Technical Rehearsal(s) § The earliest date appropriate to run partial lighting.

  • House Technical Director Job Description
    Shuswap Theatre Society Policy Manual House Technical Director 4.2.1 POLICY NUMBER: 4.2.1 DATE ADOPTED: Nov 15/17 POLICY TYPE: General Operations DATE AMENDED: POLICY TITLE: House Technical Director House Technical Director Job Description Rationale Due to the volunteer nature and lack of professional training of most if not all of the theatre technical volunteers, there is a potential for equipment to be improperly used or damaged. This creates problems for the next crew and has a financial impact on the Theatre. The House Technical Director (HTD) has both training and enforcement responsibilities. This is an ongoing position, meaning that it is not connected with only one production, but has responsibility for technical oversight of all productions and other events in which our technical equipment is used. Each production needs to have its own technical designers and operators and the HTD is free to take on those additional responsibilities as he/she wishes. If necessary the position may be divided into two or more positions, for example, a Sound Director and a Lighting Director. Compensation In recognition of the ongoing responsibility and hours of work over a year, the HTD will receive an honorarium of $1500 per year paid in three equal payments or otherwise as negotiated. The HTD will be given a discretionary budget for the repair or replacement of broken and damaged equipment. Qualifications The House Technical Director should have a good working knowledge of the following areas: § Electrical wiring § Electrical safety § Basic building
