About the Role

We are hiring a dependable Light & Sound Technician to run the audio, lighting, and fog effects for our outdoor Midway stage each night.

Run pre?show, mid?show, and post?show music every night with clean, consistent levels. Configure and operate lighting: confirm the correct mode for each fixture (manual/standalone vs. DMX), set addresses/patch, and test pan/tilt and dimmer functions.
