extremely handy for opera/orchestra/sitz-probe as well, especially when the singers aren't all using the same score.

the first thing that struck me about your post is how familiar it all sounds. and i do live in nyc, where it seems like one should be tripping over opportunities, but often i feel like i may never work again. but the replies are true too. in a job where i tend to work alone, it is easy to forget that i'm not. none of us are, and one just has to remember that there are places like this, and other sm's that are struggling just as much.
the only thing i don't quite agree with is the assertion that directors don't hire sm's. they do. often. in my experience, i've been hired by the director as often, if not more often. sometimes because there isn't a pm, sometimes despite the fact that there is a pm. and some directors have rehired, or asked that i be hired for other shows, and some have said wonderful things, never to heard from again, for no apparent reason. but all you can do is keep moving forward, keep putting yourself out there, and trust that it won't always feel so desparate or desolate.
