• changing the venue's three marquees (this requires the physical ability to carry 15lbs)
• coordinating with security, marketing and floor staff on the day of shows
• responding to customer inquires by phone and email
• taking and organizing reservations for venue's VIP space
• using in-house ticketing system to sell and refund tickets and provide ticket counts

In addition to having a positive attitude, applicants should have strong organizational skills, great customer service, and be available to work afternoons and some weekend nights. A love of live music is a plus.

The State Theatre is nationally recognized hot spot for touring bands of all genres and has been awarded multiple accolades as the best place to see live music in the Washington DC metro area.
