Students and Novice Stage Managers / Freelance

« on: Sep 23, 2014, 04:43 pm »

I was wondering if it is difficult to do freelance. How can you secure a job long enough so as not to have a large gap while searching for jobs?
Also how do you file your taxes if you're a freelance stage manager? I've heard some people having difficulties with taxes.

Introductions / Hello!

« on: Sep 21, 2014, 02:51 am »

Hello from Texas! I'm currently a student at Texas A&M and new to the theatre world. I started participating in the theatre productions here at my university during my sophomore year. I have stage managed once and ASM'd probably 3 or 4 times. I've become very interested in pursuing a career in stage management ever since! I will graduate this year and I am scared but excited about going out there to pursue my stage management career  I've been looking into apprenticeships and fellowships (though I'm not really sure what the difference is). I am really interested in wanting to do touring productions (or maybe even go abroad if possible) but I'm not sure where to start. I am also a bit confused as to how equity works. Help!
