Once

For the 2024-2025 season at Maltz Jupiter Theatre, our 2nd show was Once the Musical. For this show, I assisted in the build process, building frames for the walls and attaching foam for the stone outer layer, assisted in load-in, doing a soft goods changeover and then putting together the set as well as assisting props with their load-in and shift from the rehearsal room. Going into tech I was a part of the run crew assisting with prop handoffs and intermission changeover as well as multiple fly cues that included a large gate, a window, a bar sign, a music shop sign, and a full stage wall that revealed the video wall. As this show had almost 20 instruments I assisted the sound department in tuning, maintaining and storing all the instruments daily. during the show, I tuned guitars to a different key and in certain situations changed strings when they would break. some of my other duties during the tech process and run of the show included doing scenic and prop notes as needed, assisting stage management in communicating notes and maintaining safety on deck for a smooth show run.
