Tech at NTPA
Join the crew behind the curtain.
Lights, sound, and the people who make live theatre feel alive. Volunteer and contractor opportunities are available for ages 14+.
Paid contractor opportunities
Contractor work is best for people who already have relevant theatre, event, audio, or lighting experience.
Contractors are paid for working a full week of shows, with pay subject to how many weekends the production runs. While contractors are scheduled based on production needs, you can request specific shows (though assignment to requested shows is not guaranteed).
- Contractors must be able to commit to all assigned calls.
- Roles require onboarding documents, tax forms, and approval before paid work can begin.
