The Set Designer works closely with our musical theater production team including a musical theater director, choreographer, costumer, and accompanist. Together, the team is involved at all stages of the process, from selecting the plays to be produced to their design and pre-production through to the final performance. The ideal candidate will have experience designing lights, sound and sets in a theatre as well as working with children. This is a perfect opportunity for somebody who wants to build their design portfolio and be a part of an amazing summer camp community.
