Responsible for the get-ins, fit-ups, turnarounds and get-outs of all of productions and events at the Traverse Theatre.

As a team, the Crew will be responsible for the smooth turnarounds of all scenic aspects of the productions in both theatres (Traverse 1 and Traverse 2) and events in the rest of the building including but not limited to anything from dance floors, flats, flown scenery and revolves to stage decks, furniture and props.

The working week will be 48 hours with one day off per week. Any additional hours will be paid at single time. Positions will run from 27 July to 25 August. This role is not suitable for anyone with other commitments during these periods.
