Notes:
Because this production has performed successfully around the world, our Stage Manager position is very unique. The Stage Manager is more closely responsible for learning the production and technical decisions that have already been made, rather than mapping them out from scratch. The Stage Manager will jump into this fast-paced role after reviewing materials and being trained on software directly by producers. This role is great for recent grads or individuals looking to make the jump from Assistant SM!
