General information:
Scarborough Music Theatre is a non-union, non-profit community theatre group. We do not engage in Equity/ACTRA contracts.
The committee will attempt to interview as many people as possible but cannot guarantee interviews to all applicants.
All applicants will receive an email confirming receipt of their application.
We accept both individual and team applications. For team applications, individual resumes are required for each member. Members of team applications will be asked if they are willing to be considered separately for positions. Team applications may also include Producers and Stage Managers as part of the application.
A nominal honorarium is available for each of these positions.
Notes:
Rehearsals are traditionally held Monday and Wednesday evenings between 7:00pm and 10:30pm, and Saturday afternoons between 1:00pm and 6:00pm*. The rehearsal period is typically 6-7 weeks. Sunday evening rehearsals are typically added only in the two weeks prior to opening, once the production has moved into the theatre. *Rehearsal times may be modified according to the needs of the production but changes must be approved.
Additional rehearsals may be scheduled on Tuesday and/or Thursday evenings at the discretion of the Artistic Staff and the Producers to meet the requirements of the show.
The work of the Director and Choreographer end officially at the conclusion of the Preview Performance; the Music Director’s work ends officially on closing night. The Stage Manager and Producer(s) positions end after the presentation of their final report to the Board of Directors.
