What we're looking for:
A friendly, outgoing person who is happy to chat with the public.
Willingness to play a character and have fun with it. No acting experience needed.
Confidence using a smartphone. There are three roles to choose from:
1. Visitor Feedback Characters: be part of the show! You'll play a character (possibly a park warden) and chat to visitors as they leave, capturing their feedback with a quick questionnaire on your smartphone. We'll supply details of what you need to wear and provide any specific parts of your costume. A full briefing will be provided.
2. Event Stewards: help the event run smoothly, including supervising our bicycle-powered zoetrope and managing the queue for the Whale.
3 of the stewards will be roving, which means that they will have specific duties at specific times and the rest of the time they will flexibly respond to requests from the team running the event. We'll supply all stewards with a hi-viz vest.
We need around 15 per day
You get a free beanie if you sign up! :)
