VOLUNTEER AT SAN DIEGO OPERA
OPERA CREW
Are you an opera lover? Have some spare time? Come join our volunteer corps of devoted individuals and help on opera projects such as assembling packets, event check-in, special phone projects and much more! As much as our “stage crew” is a critical part of an opera production, our “Opera Crew” plays an invaluable role in supporting San Diego Opera. You’ll enjoy meeting new friends who share common interests and, at the same time, you will be giving back to an important San Diego institution.
For more information about joining, call (619) 232-7636 and ask for the Opera Crew hotline or email us at OperaCrew@sdopera.com.
SUPERNUMERARY
We are now expanding the talent pool of supernumeraries for our 2012
International Season. Whether an expert or a novice, all are welcome! Each
production has a limited number of supernumerary roles (or extras). These people
perform as guards, sailors, townsfolk, etc. according to the needs of the
production. It’s not always a glamorous job, but you could be onstage and
backstage soaking up all of the excitement. We are looking for enthusiastic and
dependable people of all ages and types.
The 2012 season promises comedy, adventure, and lots of EXCITEMENT. As a member
of our silent but critically important supernumerary cast, you’ll get tickets to
dress rehearsals, meet new people, and have lots of fun!
To be considered and added to our active list, call the Super hotline (619)
533-7073 and leave a clear message with your name, address, email address, and
phone number (and age if you are under 18) or email our Super Captain at
Bob.Borntrager@sdopera.com. Let us know if you have any special acrobatic or
climbing skills. Please be patient, we will mail you an info packet in the late
fall.
LIGHT WALKER
If you would like to be involved in a production, but don’t want to perform as a super, we have opportunities for people to volunteer to help our Lighting Designers by “light walking.” If you have daytime availability, we’d love to hear from you. We need “stand ins” onstage for the singers as the Director, Designer, and staff write the actual lighting cues. If you are interested in volunteering as a light walker, call our Super hotline (619) 533-7073 and leave a clear message with your name, address, email address, and phone number or email our Super Captain at Bob.Borntrager@sdopera.com.
