Hello from Alabama
« on: Aug 28, 2014, 11:40 am »
Hello,
 I'm new to the network. I don't know why it took me this long! My name is Joelle Tucker Linn. I am the Company Stage Manager at the Alabama Ballet, based in Birmingham, Alabama. This is my 9th season with the Company; my first season was ASM, took over as CSM in 2007. I'm a Birmingham native. I graduated with B.A. in Theatre from the University of Alabama in Birmingham. I had a dual focus on Performance and Technical.  This job keeps me pretty busy, but occasionally I get the chance to SM some other dance around town. I've taught one semester of SM Course at UAB since graduating in 2006. Joining up here b/c it's hard to find practical info about stage managing dance. I love my job and feel so fortunate to have landed here so early in life.

That's it! Have a great day!
Joelle Tucker Linn

Welcome to the forums, Joelle! I'd love to see some posts about what it's like to SM ballet- I've SMed some dance but it's all been modern. And I know there are at least a couple more dance SMs on the forum.  Good to have you aboard!

Welcome, neighbor! I'm currently in Tuscaloosa. Your insight on ballet will be an awesome addition to the forum.
