<p style='line-height:13.5pt'><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Looking for work as a designing woman or, for that
matter, an administrating man? StageSource, the United States Institute of
Theatre Technology New England, and the New England Theatre Conference team up
to produce the fourth annual Regional Entertainment Production and
Administration Job Expo February 14, and over 40 potential employers are
expected to be there. The event — reportedly the only regional job expo
designed to help employers in the entertainment industry reach candidates to
fill job openings in design, technical production, consulting, and
administration — takes place at MIT’s La Sala de Puerto Rico Room
(Room 202) of the Stratton Student Center, in Cambridge, from 11 a.m. until 3
p.m. </span></font></p>

size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'> says,
"Every production company in the city will have its hands full come July
with events around the Democratic National Convention." So there’s
more work out there than usual. Crystal Tiala, chair of USITT New England,
adds, "Speaking as a designer myself, there is no better place in the
region for designers and technicians to find a job."</span></font></p>
<p style='line-height:13.5pt'><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>And the beauty of it is that it’s the
production companies who pay to be there. Producer registration fee for the
REPA Job Expo is $70 ($60 for members of any of the three sponsoring
organizations). Applicants attend for free and are encouraged to bring resumes,
business cards, and portfolios. You don’t even have to show up: just send
75 copies of your resume in advance to be distributed to participating
producers. For more information, contact StageSource at 617-720-6066 or visit <a
