A member asked about Fullerton College back in '08 but also got no reply. However, we've had some new members register from schools in that area.

I suggest you poke at the following members:

PurrKitten (Fullerton College)
HBrown89 (Fullerton College)
theaterchick29 (CSU Fullerton)

A search on Fullerton popped up their names and they've all posted in the past 8 months or so. They may not be reading actively but they might respond to a PM.

I also see csulbsm, who has CSU Long Beach in their BTDT profile.

I went to UCIrvine for most of my undergrad, and although they have a MFA program, I was able to reap the benefits while being an undergrad.

A lot of stage managers I know have worked at Disney, but most of the positions are full time, and there are lot of politics about union, management, versus just employee - I am not sure if it is something you are passionate about - but it can get frustrating at times for certain people . . . other people LOVE their time working at the park.

You should always shadow.  South Coast Repertory is a regional theater close, there are lots of road houses in Southern California as well.

Thank you very much Matthew! I have asked at FC and they told me you have indeed to be part of their productions in order to later graduate as a SM. Thanks for your help!
