Ballet News Thursday, October 23 2014
We have a BIG need for costuming help within our ballet company, For His Glory. And even if your daughter is not yet in our Company program, you might be able to help us (or have a mom or aunt who can)! These needs include: a costume seamstress trainee, sewing helpers, and a costume closet organizer. Our lead seamstress is extremely gifted, but she cannot do this job alone and she will be retiring after this year when her daughter graduates. So we really need someone to train under her for next year. Please read the job descriptions below and let us know ASAP if you are interested. Also, we offer tuition discounts for our costume seamstress and costume closet organizer. Costume Seamstress responsibilities include: Organizing one or two sewing “parties” in the weeks before a show to gather the sewing team and work downstairs at Perimeter. These parties are held on Saturdays during rehearsal hours. Working backstage for one rehearsal and one show to help out with sewing emergencies. Taking costumes home to work on when needed. Ensuring all costumes are ready for performances. Sewing Helper responsibilities include: Attending one or two sewing “parties” in the weeks before a show to work on costumes downstairs at Perimeter. These parties are held on Saturdays during rehearsal hours. Working backstage for one rehearsal and one show to help out with sewing emergencies. Taking costumes home to work on when needed. Costume Closet Organizer responsibilities include: Keeping the costume closet organized. Assist with pulling of the costumes for Company performances. Organizing how costumes will be cleaned after performances (we give you names of helpers). Ensuring all costumes are returned and put back properly. |
