Marin Theatre Company is looking for a dresser and a deck crew person for our production of Harvey Fierstein’s Torch Song. The dresser will support MTC’s Wardrobe Supervisor in costume prep, maintenance, and quick changes throughout tech, previews, and the run of the show. The deck crewperson will work with the show’s ASM to prep the stage and props and run scene changes and props handoffs backstage. Both positions are invited (but not required) to attend the designer run on Thursday, April 25 (paid) to get familiar with the show and meet the team, but official start date for the deck position is Tuesday, April 30, while the dresser will start Thursday, May 2. The show will have daytime and evening rehearsals or previews Tuesday-Sunday until May 12, with the following schedule:  

After opening the crew will shift to 4 hour show calls Wednesday through Saturday evenings at 7:30 and Saturday and Sunday afternoons at 2:00 until closing on June 3.

Dresser candidates must have some experience assisting with costume changes, but Drag makeup application, basic sewing, and costume maintenance skills are helpful. Deck crew candidates should have some experience working backstage in a theater setting, while stage management experience or simple carpentry or props maintenance skills would be a plus. Pay for both positions will be $25 per hour and the positions are both eligible for overtime. Ideally, we’re looking for one person for each position to do the whole run, but we would be willing to consider working around a few conflicts for the right person. If you’re interested in coming to play with us, contact Director of Production Jessica Marchesi at jessicam@marintheatre.org.
