DISCOVERY CRUISE PROGRAM

Imagine your career in tech theatre-with free rent and meals!
Discover the rewarding world of cruise ship theatre technicians!

If you are considering a career in a cruise ship theatre, then CruiseTechies can help you!
​Ever wondered what it would be like to be a theatre technician on board a cruise ship?  
It’s a big obligation to commit to months at sea, not being sure if you will like it or not.
Wish there was a way you could find out what it’s like?
Now there is!
​It's best to make a small investment in a Discovery Cruise now, than to make an expensive discovery later!

According to CLIA (Cruise Lines International Association): 
For every job opening onboard a cruise ship,
cruise lines receive up to 100 applicants. 

Discovery Cruise participation can 
​make your resume stand out from the crowd!

WHAT IS THE DISCOVERY CRUISE PROGRAM?

A Discovery Cruise is your opportunity to discover what it's like to work in a theatre aboard a cruise ship,
before you commit to a new career.  
 
You will experience life on board a ship, and check out the state-of-the-art equipment in the venues,
​the types of entertainment, and observe the technical aspects of the shows and events.
 
Discovery Cruises are on major cruise line ships, with large state-of-the-art theatres and a variety of other venues.
 
Discovery Cruises are typically fairly short, 2 to 5 days. 
​Not too long of a commitment (or expense!), but long enough to discover if this career path is for you.

​HOW DOES IT WORK? 
1.  Send in the DISCOVERY CRUISE INQUIRY FORM (absolutely no obligation!).

2.  I will research the best cruise as per your requirements.
​
​
3.  Once your cruise is booked I will inform the shipboard Event Director of your Discovery Cruise status.
 
4.  When you’re on board, check in with the Event Coordinator (they may also be called a Cruise Director or other title - you can ask how to get ahold of them at the Guest Services desk), and start exploring the ship and its theatre(s?!) and venues, to find out if this is the career you'll love.
 
5.  After you return – it would be great if you would send in a report to be included in the CruiseTechies blog to help others follow in your footsteps.  And any photos or videos (none with faces of people who have not given written permission).
After your Discovery Cruise, if you decide working in a theatre on a cruise ship is for you(!), I will send you contact information for many of the major cruise lines, so that you can start applying for your new life style and career!

Disclaimer: While I partner with select cruise lines in order to provide you with Discovery Cruise opportunities, I am not affiliated with any particular cruise line. 
​I will attempt to find you the best cruise that suits your requirements, in order to help you best discover if a career on a cruise ship is for you!
Also... being a theatre safety guru myself (you can check out my books on theatre safety at https://www.presett.org/hstheatrebooks.html), I must point out the risk management issues regarding theatres, and that Discovery Cruise Program participants would not be permitted to handle instruments and equipment, be back stage during a performance, and must follow other industry safety precautions as set forth by the cruise line.
