I pretty much always ask: "Aside from being paid, why do you want to work here?", "What qualities, abilities, or skills do you feel are your strongest and reasons you will be picked over other applicants?" "What do you feel are your weaknesses and how do you work around them?"
I also like to ask about what they do outside of work/school, what their hobbies and interests are. Tells you a lot about them. If they don't have any answer, to me, that's a red flag that they do things they don't want to tell you about.
If they're interviewing for a managerial position I like to ask about prior conflicts they've resolved and the like, with coworkers as well as with peers and supervisors. No answer means they roll-over on command or are such a jerk nobody goes near them.
I'm looking for folks that are calm and thoughtful. The more thoughtful the better.
And if your theater is busy, athletic kids that don't necessarily play an organized sport but are just very active are usually really good -- they have tons of energy and pep, think on their feet, and in my experience get along better.
My 2 cents...
