One of the Midwest's oldest professional summer companies, Canterbury celebrates its 57th anniversary in 2025.

The Carpenter/Technician will build scenery/stage units, handle platforms, paint scenery (basic), and other normal shop duties, as well as assisting the Master Electrician, if needed. This person will also be on performance running crews, which may involve follow-spot or sound board operation.

Flexibility and a 'team player' attitude are important for this position.

Usually this position is filled by a graduate student, an upper level undergraduate, or a working professional who can afford to work for the experience and the modest salary offered. This person also fits into the summer camp atmosphere, and schedule, of typical Midwest summer stock.

Housing is included--usually shared bedrooms in houses or apartments.

The experience is typical of summer stock---resume building, experience, networking, and rewarding. Owing to our proximity to Chicago, many company members use Canterbury as a jumping-off point to move and pursue careers there. Also, Canterbury is located a short distance from the beautiful beaches of Lake Michigan.
