One fellow will gain experience across a range of technical theater areas, focusing on assisting the stage manager, technical director, and wardrobe manager.\u00a0 This is a hands-on position in the rehearsal room and during performances, as well as in maintenance and changeover time between productions.\u00a0 Responsibilities may include building\/maintaining props and costumes, hanging lights, inventory, taking notes, file management, and day-to-day upkeep in the theater.<\/p>\n

The second fellow will work alongside the company’s video and sound technical artists to maintain the systems that run and archive our productions. This fellowship requires a skill set that includes coding, Isadora, Max MSP, Touch Designer, and file system management.\u00a0 An understanding of how these systems directly relate to the work onstage is key.<\/p>\n

Fellows may have opportunities to work with The Wooster Group on tour or work with visiting artists at The Performing Garage.\u00a0 Both fellowships require strong organizational skills and a spirit of collaboration, and are considered learning positions.<\/p>\n

Both fellows will receive a $33,000 annual salary, plus benefits, including health insurance. The fellowship time period is March 2018 – February 2019. At the end of this period, fellows may be considered for further employment.<\/p><\/div>\n

Funding for these\u00a0fellowships is provided by\u00a0New York State Regional and Economic Development Councils (REDC)\u00a0to offer opportunities to individuals\u00a0from communities that have been historically underrepresented in arts organizations because of educational or economic disadvantage, or ethnic background.
