Pipeline Theatre Company is currently seeking a LIGHT BOARD OPERATOR and PRODUCTION INTERN to join their running crew for Clown Bar. Interested candidates must be available to train on July 26 and August 2 and to join the production on August 9, 16, and 23, all dates 4PM-11PM. Candidates should also have an interest in continuing to work on the production Saturdays through September.
The LIGHT BOARD OPERATOR must have a basic working electrical knowledge and will be responsible for running electrical checks before each performance and for operating the light board during each performance. Experience operating a HOG is preferred but not required. There is a small stipend available for this position.
The PRODUCTION INTERN must be highly organized and will be responsible for assisting with setup and breakdown for each performance and working with the deck stage manager and deck chief backstage during performances (duties including but not limited to running props, executing deck cues, and operating a spotlight). This is a volunteer position.
Pipeline’s original production of Clown Bar in April 2013 was named a New York Times Critics’ Pick and was extended twice by popular demand. The new Off Broadway production at legendary theater of varieties The Box is currently enjoying a critically acclaimed and sold out run and has already been extended once.
Mary Notari of nytheatre.com said of Clown Bar, “…the team responsible for the choreography, design, and stage management should be hired by everyone for everything all the time immediately.” This is a fantastic opportunity to be part of a top notch team, to work for an award winning theater company on a critically acclaimed production, and to get to know the inner workings of a legendary theater.
