🎭✨ WANTED: STAGE MANAGER FOR PINOCCHIO! ✨🎭
Have you ever wanted to be the person who keeps the magic happening behind the scenes? 🌟
We're looking for a volunteer Stage Manager (18+) to join our 2026 Family Pantomime production of Pinocchio at Hyde Festival Theatre this winter! 🎪🎭
As Stage Manager, you'll be:
🎬 Organising exciting set and scenery changes
🔨 Helping coordinate with our talented set-building team
🎁 Working alongside the props team to keep everything running smoothly
🎭 Leading the backstage crew during performances
✨ Managing cloth changes, scenery moves and prop organisation
🦺 Keeping everyone safe, motivated and having fun backstage!
No previous experience? No problem! 🙌 This is a fantastic opportunity to learn on the job, develop leadership skills, and put your own stamp on a major family production.
📍 Rehearsals and build nights take place on Monday evenings in Ashton. You don't need to attend every week, but we'd love to see you at as many rehearsals as possible as we get closer to show time.
🎟️ The successful Stage Manager will need to be available for all 8 performances, helping run the show and reset everything ready for the next audience.
🤝 Not ready to take on the Stage Manager role but still want to be part of the backstage magic? We're also looking for Stage Crew volunteers, so get in touch!
📧 Interested? Email [email protected] as soon as possible so we can appoint our 2026 Family Panto Stage Manager and begin this exciting journey together! 🌟🎭🪵👃
