setting up/stagehand


Explanation:
In the list of roles, I would take the task to be setting up. This involves assembling the set designed by the set or scenery designer, rigging the lights etc.

The people responsible are the stagehands. See:
http://www.careers-scotland.org.uk/CareerInformation/Occupat...

And:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stagehand

Quotes from these sources below.

Example sentence(s):
  • Theatre stagehands prepare the stage for a performance, move scenery and clear away afterwards. They are also responsible for maintaining sets and props.
  • A stagehand is a person who works backstage or behind the scenes in theatres, film, television, or location performance. Their duties include setting up the scenery, lights, sound, props, rigging, and special effects for a production.
