Students and Novice Stage Managers / Re: Stage Makeup - Dirt!

i was in the opera Les Miserables at my high school. we used this stuff called Praire Dust. I think Ben Nye[spelling?] actually made it. it was great and despite how much came off on our clothes there always seemed to be plenty left on our faces!

i notice when i'm in school and doing a play that the closer i get to tech week, the more of a shift you can see in my priorities. this has a pretty big impact on my grades.

but hey, the show must go on! right?

Hey- I'm new to the site. I've been doing tech for Theatre for 3 years and am now moving towards tech for Concerts. Rock Concerts. My ultimate goal is to be Stage Managing a tour but i know that i have to do something in the meantime.

most of the people i look up to got started by being loaders. most of the people i look up to are also guys.

i intern at a venue in hollywood. when i try to help bands load and get set up i often get batted off. this is hard especially when i'm just learning. make one mistake and i'm just a stupid little girl. i'm trying to not get discouraged but when i talk to my friends, they say there's only one way for girl's to get into the rock'n'roll industry and it's not by being a loader. it's by getting on their knees if you get my drift.


This site seems to be amped a little more towards theatre. Is there any concert or even touring SM's that can give me some advice on how to get started in the business?
