Being a Deputy Stage Manager

As well as co-writing the script for the company, I have taken the role as Deputy Stage Manager. I decided to work within the technical side of the show as this is where I am looking to pursue my career after finishing University. In my role as Deputy Stage Manager I will be required to help prompt the actors throughout the rehearsal process and also to cue them where to restart from during the rehearsal process within scenes if the director wants to stop at any point.

Throughout the rehearsal process it will be my job, as we do not have anyone specifically designated to the prop department, to source props and acquire them for the show.  I will also look to help the Production Manager, Stage Manager and Director at any point and with anything that may be needed throughout the process.
