Stagehands – the Vilar Performing Arts Center, an active 535-seat theatre located in the beautiful Beaver Creek Ski Resort, has an ongoing need for stagehands on a show-by-show basis. Our busy seasons run July–August and December–March. We are frequently in need of loaders, general stagehands, stage electricians, and audio hands. Our stagehands are versatile employees who work across departments as needed.

Shift scheduling is employee driven – apply for the shifts you’re available for and management will confirm which days you are on shift. Shifts are scheduled based on a 4‑hour minimum, and will not exceed 5 hours without a scheduled break. Most shifts are load‑ins (morning shifts) or load‑outs (evening shifts), and some shifts are full‑day or show‑time‑specific. Exact shift times and durations vary per performance.

Some positions will work the performance in addition to the in and out. For those with limited availability, some “load‑in only” and “load‑out only” shifts are available for most shows.

No experience in concerts or theatre? No problem! We are building a team of hard workers with positive attitudes and are willing to provide on‑the‑job training to the right people.
