THE SHOW
Drunk+reg; Shakespeare is the hit Off-Broadway comedy where five classically trained actors attempt to perform a Shakespearean masterpiece+mdash;after one of them takes five shots of whiskey. The result is a boozy, irreverent, and wildly entertaining theatrical experience.

Brass Jar Productions is seeking a passionate, creative, and highly organized General Manager to open and lead our venue and productions in Los Angeles. The Drunk+reg; Theatrical Universe now includes multiple iterations of the highly successful show, including Drunk+reg; Dracula, Drunk+reg; Christmas Carol, and Drunk+reg; Pirates.



THE VENUE
Brass Jar Productions is opening a new performance venue in the heart of West Hollywood, just steps from the Walk of Fame and a few blocks from the Hollywood Pantages Theatre. The venue will feature two distinct spaces, including the 130-seat mainstage and a smaller cabaret-style space. There is potential to expand beyond existing productions, and the General Manager will play a role in helping to shape the programmatic and operational footprint of this new location. One of the keys to this position is flexibility, and a passion for building the plane in flight.

WHO YOU ARE
You're a charismatic and resourceful leader who thrives in live performance environments and has a deep respect for the creative process. You're equally at ease giving notes to actors and solving logistical puzzles behind the scenes. You balance an eye for artistry with rock-solid operations. You can juggle solving last-minute venue issues with providing guidance to a large team of direct reports ranging from actors, stage managers, bar managers, bartenders, and servers.
