Crew & Sets:

Ms. Sell-Dane says… 

“Once we have our set designs complete and materials secured we will begin the process of calling for sign-up of crew work.

In the near future, emails will be sent out asking for crew help on specific days at specific times. Please be sure your Renweb email address is up to date.” 

“Please remember that we have 45 crew members and will only use 5-15 members at any work shift. Work needing to be completed will dictate the number of crew members needed on any given day. 

All crew members are required to work at least one shift. Please try to be flexible. Thank you!”
