The crew members of our shows are important members of each cast – they just don’t spend quite as much time in rehearsal. Crew members watch a few rehearsals; this is followed by the few long nights that constitute “tech rehearsals” and then being at the theater one hour before the show for all the regularly scheduled performances. The exception to the above would be for Stage Managers, who are part of the entire rehearsal process, and Sound Technicians, who usually watch rehearsals and run sound for three weeks before opening.

PLEASE NOTE: Good Company Players is an amateur theater company, which produces plays and a Pre-Show performance at Roger Rocka’s Dinner Theater and 2nd Space Theatre. Any member of the community is welcome to audition for all roles in all shows. All performers and crew members are volunteers seeking training and/or a recreational outlet.

Sound Technician: Attends rehearsals starting three weeks before tech rehearsals begin. Works all performances.

Follow Spot Operator: Most musicals at Roger Rocka’s require two follow spot operators. Spot operators attend some runthroughs during the final week of rehearsal and work from the start of tech week and at all performances.

Stage Crew: Depending on the show, this job could be anything from handling props backstage to set changes, etc. Attends some runthroughs during rehearsals and works from start of tech week and all performances.

Prop Gatherer: All shows need someone to gather props for use in rehearsal and performance. We have a substantial properties stock at the Good Company Players Business Office, but every show has special needs requiring inventiveness, borrowing or making things. The Prop Gatherer supplies rehearsal props by the second week of rehearsal, attends at least one rehearsal, and one or more technical rehearsals. They work with the stage crew regarding any props (such as food) that are replenished during the run, but their job is basically over once the show opens.
