Aloha from Maui!
« on: Jun 05, 2016, 07:12 pm »
I've been lurking for a while, so I thought I should put on the big girl panties and say "Hello" like a grown up.

I am currently the stage manager for a small community theater's production of Spamalot.  I usually stage manage 1 show a year for the theater.  (They ask different people for different shows.  It's a small island and they like to spread the aloha around.)

I started acting at age 7 in our local youth theater and was in show after show for 22 years.  I stopped for 15 years to get married, have kids and start a business with my husband.  I was asked to stage manage a small show for a friend who was directing and that's how I got back into it.  Spamalot is the 5th show I've stage managed.

I have always done theater for fun.  I've rarely gotten paid for anything.  It's nice getting a check for stage managing now.  It's not much compared to the hours I put in, but its fun and I get out of the house for a couple hours a day (but that's a whole other story).

Much aloha,
Luana
