Props

  The prop crew collects or creates all the small items that performers carry with them onstage. Props also include small scenic pieces and decorations that finish the look of the set.  The crew pulls pieces from stock that performers can use during the rehearsal process and provides the finished prop pieces on or before load-in day.

Prop crew volunteers should be able to work with basic hand tools (scissors, staplers, hot glue, hammer, screwdrivers, etc.) and be ready to help the crew search for needed items in the community (thrift shopping, asking people to borrow items, etc.). Work

is completed throughout the  production schedule and  is very flexible. Specific tasks that  use the  workshop can be  done during tech  nights  on most  Monday  or Tuesday  evenings, or as arranged with the  Prop  Master  or Production Manager.

Prop Crew:

• Pulls props from storage, returns props to storage, and helps keep storage tidy

• Builds & paints props, as needed, for a production

• Rebuilds/refinishes existing props to adapt them for a

production

• Finds resources in the community where props may be borrowed from

•  Decorates the set after load-in
