How to Sign Up?

 

A Few Rules You Need to Know:
Be on time for all three meetings and stay until the end - attendance is the main factor when inviting club members to join Tech Crew for the show! Participants are expected to show respect for other tech crew, cast, adults and volunteers at all times. Inappropriate conduct can be cause for dismissal. Cell phones / electronic devices for tech crew club should be turned off and out of sight during the entire length of every meeting.  Club members are not permitted to roam the halls or leave the premises of the school. Please wear comfortable attire appropriate for moving equipment, etc. and closed toed shoes.

Show Tech Crew:  

The middle school has many more students interested in being part of show tech crew than there are positions available! For the spring musical, we will fill 18-20 show tech crew positions from the Tech Crew Club membership. Slots will be offered to Tech Crew Club members in good standing (perfect attendance, behavior, attitude); the placement decision will be made by the Club Coordinator in partnership with the Show Stage Manager/guest speakers. Unfortunately there is a strong likelihood that some very motivated, capable, well-behaved students will not be offered show tech crew slots for this season but they will have priority placement for next year's spring musical. Inappropriate conduct can be cause for dismissal.

 

If you are selected for Show Tech Crew, there are mandatory tech week rehearsals and an additional mandatory nonrefundable fee of $40 to cover incidentals such as show t-shirt, poster, cast party, etc. will be collected.  You can indicate your interest and availability for Show Tech Crew for the spring musical while signing up for Tech Crew Club.
