BOTH POSITIONS require someone who is available to start immediately.
COSI
Cosi will be staged at the Northcote Town Hall from May 10 – 30. In addition to the performances at the theatre Cosi will give a number of schools matinees where we take the show to the school. In addition to the performance commitments the Stage manager for this show will need to be available for night time rehearsals on Tuesday and Thursdays as well as on Sunday days.

Payment details
Payment for these positions is on a profit share basis.
Experience/Skills
The key things we will be looking for are passion, commitment and organisational/communication skills. Previous experience as a Stage Manager certainly doesn’t hurt – but it is NOT A MUST – if you’ve got what it takes then we won’t shy away from giving a first timer a go.
