Hi! My name is Kendall Jennings.... I am new here! I just want to say I love this site already. Just reading a few posts and it's exciting to hear advice from experience stage managers. I would say I am experienced as well, but I just graduated college. So, all my experience is university productions and a few productions with a professional theatre down in Bowling Green, KY.
I know we just "met," but I have some exciting news! I moving to New York City in October! Yeah, I know, big change from Louisville, KY. I am thrilled, excited...... nervous. Every day, I am either about to vomit or jumping up and down screaming with joy. I guess it's the unknown that is killing me. The good thing is I have a great connection with a female director from New York, who has taken me in as a mentee. She has been very helpful, and I have been reading a ton of books on stage managing.
I actually found this site through one of the books I am reading.
Anywho! I am an excited, positive, dedicated SM who is waiting for her next chapter and ready to learn more.
I'm very happy to find this site and I can't wait to learn all the knowledge you all have about the backstage life!
I am a very open person and love people, so if you want to chat - send me a message. Or if you have any advice on moving to the Big Apple, I am all ears.
Thank you and have a blessed week
