Be ready to walk through a live-show failure you diagnosed under time pressure, how you document lockout/tagout or safety steps, and how you work with stage managers when automation affects cues. Ask about Blue Man Group Orlando’s specific control systems and call schedule.
Strong fit if you like hands-on show technology, fixed-site Orlando hours (not remote), and supporting a branded Cirque-affiliated production where reliability matters more than desk work.
