There are always opportunities for young people interested in backstage and technical work.  This year we shall be looking for a small number of Assistant Stage Managers to join our projects.

You will work with an experienced Stage Manager to look after the backstage requirements of the project. This could include making and find props and costumes, cueing the lighting, running the sound and ensuring the smooth running of the rehearsals and showings.

Working as part of a team you will gain valuable experience in realising high production values on small budgets. Because of the nature of the work you must be 16 yrs or over on the 1^st July 2008.

Backstage participants will need to be able to pay a course fee for each course. You will receive offers in the same way as the actors and will receive the same fundraising booklet - 'Putting the Fun into Fundraising'.

If you are interested, then download the application form below and send it to the office in London. You will be contacted by the YMT: UK's Operations Manager, Sarah Double to arrange an interview. If you want to talk further about these opportunities, then call Sarah on 0870 240 5057.
