The North Country Center for the Arts at Jean’s Playhouse, a 260-seat traditional summer stock theatre located in the rural resort town of Lincoln, NH, is seeking a Master Carpenter for its 2021 Summer Season, which will feature 3 TBD shows in our theatre and an outdoor concert, pandemic permitting. We will be developing a cohesive COVID-19 plan to keep our company “bubble” safe during the contract.

The Master Carpenter reports directly to the Technical Director and assists in supervising all aspects of the shop, as well as contributing heavily to the construction, installation, and striking of each set over the course of the summer. The Master Carpenter must have strong skills in all construction aspects, including carpentry, rigging, welding, and other fabrication techniques. Candidates should be experienced builders, capable of taking direction, completing projects from start to finish on deadline, and working on a fast-paced schedule. Lifting items up to 50 lbs, climbing ladders, and working with construction tools are day to day activity in this position. Candidates must have a valid driver’s license.

Salary is $300 / week, plus shared housing in walking distance of the theatre, shops, as well as restaurants, grocery stores, and other common needs. Interested applicants should email a letter of intent, resume, portfolio (if available), and references.
