Project Description

Voice Theatre is seeking a creative and detail-oriented Set Designer to design and work with our director, designers, TD and crew to design and help build the set for NOISES OFF by Michael Frayn.

The responsibilities include reading the script, consulting with the director and our production team, detailed drawings of plans and sets and a model of the set.

The action of this play is very physical with two levels. Plans must be exact and clear. If we use a turntable we will rent and the turntable will be installed and struck by PRG Technologies.

Candidate will oversee and work with crew on set dressing and build.

The ideal candidate must have proven experience as a set designer, be familiar with the artistic and practical aspects of set design and have an exceptional eye for detail.
