Members of IATSE Local 13 ? the International Alliance of Theatrical and Stage Employees ? toured the new riverfront Guthrie Theater May 19. The theater holds its grand opening June 25.
The Guthrie hosted a tour of the new facility for IATSE Local 13 personnel, including employees from the stagehand and wardrobe lists. Workers who had not worked at the Guthrie previously also were welcomed and were encouraged to bring a resume for consideration.
The new Guthrie, a large, dark-blue steel-clad building, is located at 818 South 2nd Street on the riverfront next to the Mill City Museum.
The tour covered procedures specific to the new 285,000-square-foot building and the various workspaces in which employees may be expected to work. The tour also broke into smaller departmental groups (electrics, scenic, costumes) to focus on specific concerns.
Workers also had the opportunity to meet one-on-one with department managers. IATSE Local 13 is preparing to fill work calls for the public opening in June and first productions in July and August.
