Students and Novice Stage Managers / Re: Sexist Scenic Designer... HELP!
« on: Jul 15, 2007, 08:50 pm »
Before anything else, I don't see that this has been mentioned, but it might be a good idea to talk to the designer about these things, without going around it. I'm not saying be confrontational, but ask him if he's been getting your emails, and explain to him you need those things. Face to face, or over the phone. I don't think you have to go around the topic. Don't mention anything about him being sexist, who knows if he even is. You're basically getting opinions from other people.
Just ask him in a straightforward way about the communication issues. What's the worst that can happen?
If that doesn't work, then yeah, try to find a creative way around it, but I would try to work it out with him before bringing other staff into it.
