Are you that one friend who starts playing holiday music at 12:01AM the day after Thanksgiving? Do you stream holiday movies 24/7 during the month of December? theatreMAMA is seeking holiday obsessed performers for a cast of “Candy Cane Greeters” to create an immersive experience outside the doors of Radio City Music Hall. Cast members will be costumed and stationed outside the iconic venue where they will help create a more joyful and theatrical experience as audience members make their way to see the infamous Christmas Spectacular, starring the world famous Radio City Rockettes.

In addition to creating an immersive atmosphere of joy, this cast assists Radio City Music Hall with important things like directing audience members, answering questions, line preparation, COVID-19 safety measures, and other processes that allow the show to begin smoothly.
