About me
My name is James, and I am a Theatre Technician with many years of experience in professional theatre. I have been involved in many set up of different genres of theatre and have used all types of technical equipment. I have experience in lighting, sound, and stage.I am hardworking and reliable with strong organizational skills eager to secure a position in the theatre environment. I am ready to help the team achieve any company goals within the theatre industry.
Throughout the course of my career, I have honed my creativity abilities in my role as a Technical Swing, stage manager and a casual technician. I exercised ability to learn and grow, communication and being a fast learner in contribution to team efforts and organizational improvements. I am open-minded and focused on new developments in my field. I have proven to be effective and motivational, with having a drive to succeed in collaborative work. I enjoy brainstorming and coordinating efforts to achieve a common goal.
I have worked, from Venue Technician to Stage Management & Crewing. My top highlight is being stage crew for 2 years for the professional pantomime held at the Royal Spa Centre in Leamington. This is a role I look forward to doing every year as I have built up a strong connection with the company and the theatre. I have also attached all the shows that I have been involved in during 2022 & 2023 (so far) just to showcase the vast variety of experience and knowledge that I can bring to the team, from lighting, sound and stage I have done it all (without sounding big headed)
