Students and Novice Stage Managers / What to do with too much help!?!?

« on: Oct 02, 2008, 03:35 pm »

Hey,

I am Stage Managing a play called "Grandma Duck is Dead" at my community College and as part of the program the students from the Stage Craft class can choose to work the show or do shop hours.

Grandma Duck is a I Act and most of the props used are on stage.
I have 9 people that signed up to run crew. Two will go to light board and sound.
What should I do with the other 7!?

Any advice?

College and Graduate Studies / Is an AA degree enough?

I'm graduating with an AA degree in Theatre from Santa Fe College in FL.

Is this enough of a education, or should I be looking into a University Education after?

« on: May 13, 2008, 12:38 pm »

How do you write standbys & cues down?

I'm stage managing my first show and although I've had a lot of ASM experience, I don't really know how to write down standby's or cues in a professional manner..

Can someone help me?

College and Graduate Studies / Colleges in the South

« on: Mar 18, 2008, 02:24 pm »

I'm currently attending Santa Fe Community College...which has a good technical theatre program to start out with.
I'm in my first year, but I've started looking for a 4 year college to move onto.

I'd really like something in FL.
I don't want anything in Miami.
If you could help me out, that'd be great!

Thanks!!!

What fly system is used for Peter Pan?
I'm interested in learning the system, and finding out how much one would cost.
The theatre I work with is interested in putting on in.

Thanks!

Students and Novice Stage Managers / Programs of Study in the US

« on: Jan 02, 2008, 05:45 pm »

Hey.
I'm going to Community College right now, but eventually I would like to branch out to another school for some more learning, as this Community College doesn't offer JUST technical theatre but you have to take acting as well. I don't mind...because I like to act, but I'd like to focus more on the tecnical side eventually.

Anyway...my question is what are some really good schools down in the south US?
South Georgia and Florida would be my preference.
I know there are a lot of abroad schools...and I'll go that far if need be...but...in the event that doesn't/can't happen I need a back up plan.
=)

Thank you!
