Past Projects
Assistant Stage Manager
Grab Me a Gondola (Guildford School of Acting)
This project required a great deal of period-accurate prop sourcing, prop making, painting, time management, and organisation. I made a lot of paper props, including naval telegrams, a hotel registration book, and a newspaper. I also painted a 2D cutout of a 1950s Vespa, made mooring posts, and painted the majority of the furniture to match the set. I covered the rehearsal room when the DSM was unavailable, taking rehearsal notes and recording blocking in the book. During tech, I created my own show track along with my fellow ASM and performed this track during show week.
Sound 3
Alice By Heart (Guildford School of Acting)
As this was an Actor-Musician show, we had 19 actors as well as all of their instruments to mic. My role consisted of mic prep, micing instruments, distributing mics to actors, troubleshooting issues in collaboration with the Sound 2, assisting with sound checks, and general mic maintenance.
Stage Manager on the Book
GAME the Musical (Make Believe)
I stage managed and called this musical in 3 different venues over 3 weeks. Each performance was a different group of children, so I had to adapt my cues slightly for each group. I communicated with the tech team to update Qlab and lighting cues for each show, and updated my own book accordingly. I ensured that each show went smoothly despite last minute changes.
Stage Manager on the Book
Class Act on Stage (Make Believe)
I called sound, lighting, and video cues for a 23-act children's talent show. I also oversaw the rehearsal and tech sessions, created the book, and helped with the safeguarding of the children throughout the day.
Assistant/Deputy Stage Manager
Lucky Stiff (Institute for Contemporary Theatre)
On this double-cast production of Lucky Stiff, I was ASM for one cast and DSM for the other. My responsibilities included running the rehearsal room, creating the book, communicating with creatives, and prop making, sourcing, and maintenance.
