Move-In and Set Build for Little Shop of Horrors

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 7, 2023 – 9AM to 5PM

We are looking for people willing to volunteer their time. The day will consist of moving items from storage in Saugus and from the basement of the American Legion, into the performance space (9AM to 1PM). AND the second part will be to construct the set pieces that need to be built (1PM to 5PM or later). We are looking for people who can volunteer for any part of the day.

Make sure you wear close-toed, non-slip shoes and bring work gloves if you have them. Wear clothes you don’t mind getting messy/sweaty.

Set build will consist of constructing a number of literal “moving pieces”. There will be creation of platforms and the addition of casters for ease of movement. We will need bodies to assist with moving pieces. So even if you don’t know much about tools – there is still plenty to assist with throughout the process.

If you are able to assist, we are also looking for you to bring the following tools with you:
• Screw Gun
• Drill
• Hammer

Also looking for:
• Table Saws
• Saw
• Levels
• L-Square

If you are able to be there on SAT, OCT 7 and/or you can bring any of the items listed, please let us know!

The more the merrier. Email us at tcsaugus@gmail.com with the subject line – LSOH Set Build.
