Booth Lighting and Sound Operators / Part Time

At the Cultural Park Theater in Cape Coral, Florida, we are committed to creating a community that fosters equity of experience and opportunity, and ensures that volunteers and staff of all backgrounds feel safe, welcome and included. Our culture of openness, freedom and belonging make it a special place for everyone.
 

Primary Purpose:

 

Looking to work behind-the-scenes, but don't want to be left out of the on-stage action can opt to work as a Light Technician, or a Sound Technician. These essential people work directly with the show, making sure sound is balanced and that the lighting effects and transitions work seamlessly. Light and sound people range in age from 10-90. No experience? No problem! CTL's modern light board makes lighting the stage a breeze. If you can push a "go" button, you can be a Light Technician. People with a more advanced knowledge (or interest) in lighting can volunteer for Light Design. These volunteers work closely with the director to create many of the wonderful lighting effects that enhance each show. Moderate time commitment limited to the tech rehearsals and performances of a show.

 

Sound Technicians cue microphones, sound effects CD's, music--whatever is needed for a particular show. A little knowledge of sound equipment is helpful, but anyone can learn!  Moderate time commitment limited to the tech rehearsals and performances of a show.
