Thank you for volunteering to help “behind the scenes” for Dinosaurs Before Dark KIDS! We request that you sign up for only one or two slots at this time to ensure all our parents have an opportunity to sign up. We will use email to communicate with our volunteers. ALL volunteers will be compensated with a comp ticket/s for their efforts. If your role also includes a waived production fee, you will be contacted by The Biz after signing up to arrange this.
LOAD IN/LOAD OUT CREW – You will be responsible for helping move a selection of items (costumes, props, set pieces, sound equipment, etc.) from The Biz to the performance venue and at the end of the show’s run you will be responsible for moving those items from the performance venue back to The Biz as per directions from the Load In/Load Out Coordinator. It is VERY helpful for these volunteers to have access to a truck and/or trailer to help transport items.
CAST PARTY PLANNERS – Plan the cast party (scheduled for Sunday, September 11, 4:00-6:00 PM).
BRAVO/CONCESSION TABLE – Bravo Table helpers will “man” the table to sell items before the show, at intermission, and afterwards. You will then get to see the show for free at that performance. Please arrive 45 minutes before the show begins to check in with the Coordinator.
HOUSE MANAGER – House managers are responsible for overseeing Ushers, (arrive one hour before the show). The lobby and seating area will be your main focus. You will need to monitor seating – no saving of seats is allowed. You will also be responsible for securing handicap seating when needed per Jan’s instructions.
USHER – Involves collecting and examining tickets at the door and handing out playbills. You will also monitor the taking in of concessions, which is not allowed. You will then get to see the show for free at that performance. Doors open 30 minutes before the show. We ask that you arrive no later than 1 hour before the show to check in at the Box Office Table.
BACKSTAGE HELPER – You are responsible for helping keep our young performers quiet backstage and ready to go on when it’s their turn to be on stage. You will then get a comp ticket to see 1 of the other shows for free. If you are helping during tech week, you will need to arrive at the same time as the kids and stay for all of rehearsal. If you are helping during a show, we ask that you arrive no later than 1 hour before the show to check in with the Stage Manager.
