Get Involved!
We can’t wait to get back to creating with you! In our Fall 22’ festival there will be a million roles to fill. If you or your friend is a creative individual, we encourage you to apply to participate. If you want to engage with our community further, board applications open at the beginning of every school year!
The Board
A dedicated, brilliant group of high schoolers (just like you!) make 14/48:HS possible by going to weekly, Sunday meetings where all the important planning work happens, making festivals come together. These people are integral to the function of this program, they literally make it happen, by finding venues, procuring donations, facilitating casting, and many other fantastically important things!
Artistic Positions
Actors, directors, band, and writers play crucial roles in the creation of the final performance. Writers spend all night crafting ten minute plays and directors guide actors through the scripts shaping stage pictures and authentic performances. The band works creatively to create incredible music for the shows and their themes. Finally, actors bring the plays to life just 24 hours after the writers started brainstorming.
Design Positions
The unseen miracles backstage make the shows look and sound professional and polished. Our design team includes the sound designer, the light designer, and a team of set, prop, and costume designers. This is a crucial part of our festival, and requires just as much creativity, improv, and sense of fun as our artistic positions.
Management Positions
The unsung heroes of the Festival ensure all details go according to plan. Our day-of coordinator, stage manager and volunteer coordinator along with the Festival producer work hard to create a great experience for fellow participants and a great show for audience members. Our dedicated volunteers help fold programs, staff the box office, pick up food, and arrange snacks.
