TBA Casting is crewing up for our next run of shows for The Jury Experience - Atlanta! We have two active scripts or "cases": Death by AI and Death on the Port Side. We are looking for a freelance Stage Manager that can work as an Atlanta local hire.

The Jury Experience is a 60-minute scripted play presented as a live courtroom trial. The audience serves as the jury, and the show features alternative endings based on their verdict.

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! Please note this show is non-union and paid.
