Victoria Fringe Venue Technician
You are an energetic, enthusiastic, all-around Theatre Technician, excited to work in a fast-paced (and fun!) Festival environment teching and operating five performances of 13 unique shows by different theatre companies over a 7-week period at our Metro Studio. It’s a great way for those with an existing all-round technical theatre skill set to broaden their experience. You’ll work in partnership with another experienced venue technician in order to split up the workload and cover for each other to run shows when needed.
You have experience or interest in festivals, live performance (theatre), customer service, and community events. You are eager to learn more about and contribute to a fun, safe and inclusive festival and are comfortable working in a fast-paced theatre production environment. Some previous experience in technical theatre/festival/AV production is a strong advantage.
We also hire other casual staff over Winter/Spring for our festivals, please check back for seasonal festival postings, and contact jobs@intrepidtheatre.com if you would like to submit a resume.
