Melbourne Based Roadie for Local + Touring Theatre

3 weeks ago


East Melbourne, Australia Books To Life Full time

Must have a current Working With Children's Check though no direct contact with students as part of the job.

Bump in & bump out of a theatre in education show at primary schools in Melbourne & interstate, accompanied by a very experienced performer.

Includes working with the performer to unload ute of gear at schools, wheel into the school halls & setup props & costumes from suitcases, 2 speakers on stands, 3 staging panels, backdrop curtain, 4 lights on stands, 2 projectors on stands, 2 projection screens & seats for teachers around the audience for the one-man stage show. No tech, performing or interaction with students required. 45-90 minute break from 9am each day as 1 or 2 shows are performed then reverse bump out before moving to second school to repeat for a single show in the afternoon. Another 45 minute break from usually 2.30pm to 3.15pm. Roadie to share driving or if not fully licenced then all driving done by performer. All tech, interaction with staff & students is done by the performer so the roadie just gets to focus on bump in & bump out at top speed twice a day.

When in Melbourne departure & return each day to Blackburn Nth area or can meet at schools.

When interstate we free-camp in a top-of-the-line offroad Kimberley Kamper camper trailer with full kitchen, hot water, internal hot air heating & 2 beds. All meals & this accommodation are supplied when interstate as is a campfire when time & location permits. Accommodation in the camper trailer is a shared space with the male performer & roadie in separate beds or a separate swag can be provided for the roadie if preferred. Some experience camping would certainly be a bonus. This is a very practical tour so the roadie should have realistic expectations of what touring & free-camping entails. A positive attitude is very important for touring.

Roadie must be strong, reliable, prompt, have a great work ethic, positive attitude & ability to work fast. Driver's licence is preferred to give the performer a break on longer trips when interstate but is not a strict prerequisite in order to apply.

Please include surname & WWCC card number to confirm it on the government website as required by law.

Some reasonably heavy lifting of speakers, etc is required so applicants must be physically fit & have no issues or pre-existing injuries that would hinder this work.

Performances dates are listed below:
$130 home day, $160 away + meals & accommodation.

Dates for August are 12-16 (Sydney $800), 17 (Melbourne $130), 18 (travel day $160), 19-21 (Sydney $480), 22-23 & 26-30 (Melbourne $910). Dates for September are 2-6 & 9-13 (Melbourne $1,300), 16-19 (Adelaide $640). Total $4,420
