Do you know if SCAD (Savannah School of Art and Design) has a SM program?

Well funny thing. Now, Blake has been out of town and has missed some rehearsals multiple times.  So during one rehearsal when he was not there I totally crossed the line. I did character development with the actors. That is not my job. But I saw that he was not going to do character development with them so I did. I have not told him and I made the cast promise me not to say a word. But now I'm doing his job. Its just awful. I don't even think there is a line any more. I'm doing a lot of the directing and he does not even care. I'm just worried that this might back lash on me. What can I do to prevent that? I mentioned to him that maybe one day we can sit down and write out who's jobs are who's but he pretty much just said, you job is my job when I don't do it. (He did not say that, that is how I interpreted what he said.)

You should maybe talk to students teacher, see who he or she thinks would be a good fit.

I have been asked to be my Stage managers, Stage manager for his senior directed One Act. (I'm a freshman already directed two touring shows with casts and tech about 50 people)
 I have already noticed that he will not give me a chance to my job. He is doing all the work himself and leaving me out of the loop.  I am getting very tired of dealing with this and we have yet to even start rehearsals. I love this young man, he is my mentor. I used to idolize him. But know I don't know what to do, he is my friend.When he originally asked me to be his SM I said, "Blake, remember, you are the Director and I am the SM, There are things I do and things you do. If you let me do my job I will be your SM."  What should I do?

Will this really work? Just by using one flash?
