    Description

    Set building

    Help build and/or paint and transport and install scenery on the stage. Our technical directors, scenic artists, and set designers will train you in what to do, or bring skills you already have. When the set is complete, you may come to a final dress rehearsal to see your handiwork onstage. This is also a good time to meet the opera singers who are enjoying performing on "your" set.

    Location

    On-site

    Lucie Stern Theater

    1305 Middlefield Rd, Palo Alto, CA 94301, USA
