Preferred Qualifications Position Summary
The Technical Production Manager ( TPM ) is a 10-month position for the Department of Dance and the Department of Theatre and Film Studies. As a shared position, the position will support Dance 60% of the time and Theatre and Film Studies 40% of the time. The TPM will be responsible for lighting and theatre electrics, audio, projection, media, and digital technology as well as construction of sets.

In the Department of Dance, the position supports the production of annual dance concerts, presentations, faculty support, and other dance events on and off campus.
