Fresh Meat is seeking a stage manager for our 2018 festival.
Dates: October 8 - October 21, 2018
Contract fee: $1000 ($500/week)
Fresh Meat’s goal is to present innovative, short new works by Ottawa artists. The festival programs ten new 20-minute creations across two weekends in Arts Court Studio each October. The festival aims to bring together local artists of all backgrounds, theatrical practices, and levels of emergence, and to make space for the lived experience of all Canadians.

Familiarity with Qlab, access to a laptop that can be used for the duration of the festival, and a basic knowledge of theatre lighting and sound are all considered assets.
The festival runs from October 11-13 and 18-20, 2018.

Please send a CV and letter of interest to Emily Carvell at emily@freshmeatfest.com, subject line “Stage Manager” before August 31, 2018.
