So I should follow up and say that I've gotten the job! I actually found out on June 23rd and have been pretty excited about it, I can't believe that I forgot to post something!
I did get some more details about what some of the 'additional duties' are, and I think I'm pretty lucky because as part of our touring company we have 4 technicians: TD/Sound, Lighting Dir., Costumes/Props, Open Captions (non-union ASM). I looks as though a lot of my responsibility on the road will be related to company management and backstage adjustment at each venue. And of course the unexpected.
The show is called Nobody's Perfect - it's a musical that is simulatiously spoken/sung and in ASL, based on a children's book by Marlee Matlin. The show was performed at the Kennedy Center in 2007 (i think) and is now going out on tour in 2010. Additionally, it's going to be option captioned as well. I think it's the first show of this nature to be live captioned.
We'll be in Washington, DC for 3 weeks of rehearsal and then a 14-week national tour - I'm especially excited about the travel, even though I know there won't be much tourist time - I've never been west of Dayton, OH.
