This person will oversee the selling of tickets for each performance night of the production.  This is the trouble shooter who helps out everyone else who is selling tickets.  This person will make sure that the point of sale registers are all up and running and will handle the accounting of cash at the start and end of each performance's sales.

This person is selling tickets either in the box office booth or at the tables next to the box office booth.  Ticket sales are made using cash, credit, or checks.

This position would be handled by one person each performance.  Preferably one person or maybe two people would handle the position for all the performances.

This person helps with selling flowers before the show and during intermission.  They do not need to coordinate inventory.  That is the “Head Honcho's” job.

• Seniors in the production receive an empty picture frame to fill with whatever biographical information and pictures they wish.  Volunteers will put up a display of these Senior biographies in the lobby to be seen during the run of the production.  

Create displays that would be of interest to audience members such as “behind the scenes” photos or possibly information about the professional production. 

• Provide backstage adult supervision during performances

• Get the Electronic Billboard Advertising Space donated – Lamar Outdoors.  Some groups/businesses might put up the money to buy the space, others might offer to put our information on the billboard during time that they have already paid for.  We have had both done in the past.
• Get the show on any community calendars available (radio, tv, newspaper)
• Put show information on the MPHS Website, District social media, district emails, Distribute posters around the area

• Collect payment and copy for advertisements
• Coordinate physical or electronic delivery of advertising to Mr. Klak
• Possibly produce advertisement copy for a client (rarely needed)
• Find new advertisement sponsors (the more the merrier)
• Find a performance sponsor for each performance.  A performance sponsor receives a sign denoting its sponsorship in the lobby before, during, and after the performance and an oral recognition of its sponsorship at the beginning of each performance.  Performance sponsors must purchase an advertisement in our program plus $250. (example a page sponsor ad of $200 plus $250 to be a performance sponsor for a total of $450.)
• Write a brief thank you note to advertisers to be sent out with a copy of the program following the production.  This is easiest done when the ad is secured so that putting the Thank you note in an envelope with the program and sending them off can be done quickly.

Seniors also need to fill out a biography form.  From these forms a volunteer needs to type up senior biographies that are printed in the program.  Biography forms need to be turned in to Mr. Klak from students by the end of rehearsal on Monday, February 10th  so that they can be delivered to the volunteer to be typed.  The volunteer needs to have the typed and proofread Senior Biographies to Mr. Klak by Monday, February 10th to be sent to the printer for the program.
