Have You Ever Considered Becoming a House Manager for the Players?

Did you know… every show put on at the City Auditorium MUST have a trained, city-certified House Manager present.  In other words, we have to have a House Manager for every Players performance, or the show can’t go on.

The Players are in great need of more trained House Managers.  

The House Manager oversees everything in front of the curtain for our shows at the City Auditorium.  It’s a vital role for the Players, and really contributes to the positive theatre experience of our audience.  It’s also an ideal position if you’d like to be involved, but don’t have the time to work on a show for the whole production period.   

Responsibilities of this position include:

• Ensuring we have the required number of ushers, and training/overseeing them as needed.
• Controlling house lights and exit doors.
• In the unlikely case of an emergency, supervising the safe evacuation of the facility.

Audi House Managers are required to attend a training (approximately 90 minutes) in order to be added to the City of Concord’s list of certified House Managers.  Those interested in attending a training session should contact Ellen Burger at Ellen.burger@communityplayersofconcord.org   (Note: After attending this training you will need to take a brief online crowd control training, and then shadow a House Manager for two shows at the Audi, in order to become a certified House Manager.)  

So, if you’d enjoy getting more involved and like working with people, please consider this opportunity to become an Audi House Manager!
