timekeeper but if they were a high school tech crew (aka i write headcanons based on my niche interests)
(this is all based on the way my schools tech crew works, so it’s probably different from most others. this is also like. super running crew specific but i have more headcanons about set building.)
danny and cassie - lights all the way. they’ve been doing it for years, and are Known for it. they alternate who does light board and who does whatever else needs to be done every show. they have a running collection of wrenches they accidentally stole from the cats. also, danny high key hates the cats so cassie hangs as many of the lights as she can on her own, and he sits in the booth and fixes anything that needs fixing. unfortunately, cassie is terrible at putting gels in and danny is really good at it so there’s a about a week straight where when they come down from the cats, danny lays face down in the ground for 15 minutes straight to recuperate. they’re spectacularly bad at organization in the cats and the booth. danny’s the cause of like half of the grafitti up there, but whenever cassie does it she just writes be gay do crime in tiny letters.
daphne and zavier - i almost made them stage manager, but i don’t think they’d fuck with that much. they’d probably be co-deck chiefs. daphne on right wing, and zavier on left wing (i have no justification for that. it just feels right.) they’re both lowkey really buff from years of shoving massive set pieces around. the actors are all scared of them because they’re both tall, buff, and put together despite the wild amounts of stress they’re under all the time.
meena and akash - sound. akash did it first and meena sort of ended up doing sound too because of Sibling Things (same. part of the reason why i do lights.) but she picked it up pretty quickly. akash runs the soundboard for actors mics (i think there’s a name for it i just can’t remember) and meena runs the pit soundboard. akash does most of the setting up the soundboard and mic checks while meena mics the actors. sometimes meena hides under the soundboard desk and plays candy crush.
colton - colton shows up in their junior year and ends up doing lights. he really, really likes the catwalks and actually knows how to put a gel in, which danny is very, very glad for. he’s also like. spectacularly bad at organization so god help any of them try to find things up there. sometimes if he’s busy colton accidentally doesn’t pay attention to what someone’s asking for so instead of a wrench he’ll just pull a twist tie or a single bent washer out of his pocket and hand it over.
brandon - he’s probably the poor freshman they make do stuff. he doesn’t know it, but danny and cassie, and daphne and zavier are arguing about who gets to train him for when they graduate. this means that he ends up getting pulled in like three different directions and now knows the basics of everything except sound.
i’m probably gonna add more to this later, but here you go
