Being part of the Front of House team is an excellent opportunity to learn the business side of a production and be the first interaction our guests experience. The high-energy logistics of moving folks through parking, the box office, waiting areas and onto their departure on time with all the amenities needed for the production is extremely rewarding, knowing guests are on their way to making lasting memories with loved ones. The Front of House team is also an integral part of providing customer service to our guests and support to cast and crew on the ground.

With a total cast, crew and front of house employees of 60-75 people onsite every day and the possibility of over 2,000 guests, our days can be chaotic.
