thank you

I know this thread is so very old and don't even know if these methods listed above apply to today's economy and all. I work as an usher in NYC and was curious to know if I wanted to work at a theater in the UK from the US, how should I go about that? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Do you think they'll hire someone for two months? I'm a dutch girl looking for a summer job in Londen and doing something similar in the Netherlands at the moment...

Hi!

woodpusher. I'm now covering backstage and FoH, my life appears to be now some crazy non stop theatre madness but I love it! The only way they'd allow me to get backstage was to keep my number of hours FoH as the same. By hell I hope that I get into a SM course this year.

er...don't tell them.  Just take a job and then leave when you need to.  For what they pay FoH, they can't expect much in the way of loyalty.

And yes I do feel odd pointing out the obvious to an adult.

I'm thinking of applying for some usher/front of house jobs, but am I at a disadvantage if I can only work for two months (August and September)? Do they hire people for such short periods of time?

If he really wants to be RoH then holiday cover is a start. The start in fact.  That's what I did...20 odd years ago mind.  If he means 'backstage...
