Stage Team Applications

Behind every great production is an incredible team working behind the scenes.

Our Stage Team plays a vital role in bringing We Will Rock You to life, supporting the cast and production team throughout rehearsals and performances. From preparing props and managing scene changes to helping everything run smoothly backstage, you'll become an essential part of the company.

Working alongside Stage Manager Pamela Earl, this is a fantastic opportunity to gain hands-on experience in live theatre, learn how productions operate behind the scenes, and develop valuable teamwork, communication and organisational skills.

No previous backstage experience is required—just enthusiasm, reliability, and a willingness to learn.

What Does the Stage Team Do?

As a member of the Stage Team you may be involved in:

• Preparing and managing props

• Assisting with scene changes

• Supporting cast backstage

• Helping maintain backstage organisation

• Assisting the Stage Manager throughout rehearsals and performances

• Working as part of the wider production team to ensure every performance runs smoothly

Every production relies on a dedicated backstage team, and this role is just as important as those on stage.
