JOIN OUR TEAM
PRODUCER/PRODUCTION MANAGER
APPLY BY NOV 29 2021
the Role:
Project: Humanity is seeking the help of a Producer/Production Manager for our Proximity Lab 2.0 Development and Digital Sharing. This program was originally launched in the summer of 2021 and had four equity-seeking artists explore the question: what is the future of verbatim theatre? Now, with funding from the Canada Council’s “Digital Now” program, our four Proximity Lab artists are embarking on their next stage of development culminating in an online sharing in June of 2022. Their works are experimental in nature and their processes will have varying producing/technical requirements.
REMUNERATION:
The remuneration for this Producer/Production Manager is up to $6,000 (for no more than 300 hours) and the time commitment / working hours are flexible.
Project: Humanity hopes to have this role in place by December 6, 2021.
Primary tasks and responsibilities:
This position’s responsibilities will likely include:
Coordinating contracts for collaborating artists across all four projects;
Finding and booking spaces for the work to be developed in;
Keeping track of development schedules across all four projects;
Expense tracking across all four projects;
Coordinating the technical requirements for each artist’s development process;
Coordinating the technical requirements for the online festival sharing in June of 2022;
Finding and obtaining technical gear for the development and digital sharing
This program is focused on process over product and involves supporting artists from a variety of equity seeking groups, therefore the following characteristics are important to PH:
Flexibility
Honouring the Artist as a Whole Person
Wonder / Curiosity
Connection Centered
Awareness of Anti-Oppressive Artistic Practices and/or How White Supremacy Has Impacted our Industry
Project: Humanity is committed to principles of anti-racism, anti-oppression, and equity in our work on stages, in communities, and internally within our organization. We will prioritize applications from Black people, Indigenous people, People of Colour, those who identify as disabled, neurodivergent, and/or have lived experience of mental illness (ie, MAD), members of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community, and those with lived experiences that they identify as a barrier to accessing employment in this or other fields.
