New member here
I'm Kel (they/them). I'm a SM located in Philadelphia, PA! I graduated in 2021 and am finally getting back into doing the thing again.
I've been nicknamed the spreadsheet savant, so if anyone needs help with formatting or making new paperwork, I would love to help!!!
Excited to be here, ready to work

My first production as a stage manager they literally had me come in 2 weeks before opening and they just wanted me to call the show, nothing else. I've been learning a lot since then and I've been taking a free course because I have found that I love this aspect of theatre. I accidentally stumbled on this website while looking for examples of preproduction forms. I've been obsessed ever since. You all are amazing and I'm learning so much! Thank you!

« Last post by SideGig_SM on Feb 04, 2022, 06:26 pm »I'm introducing myself to this forum. I am an elementary music teacher by day and my side gig from time to time is Stage Managing. I get lots of compliments on my stage managing abilities, but I have no formal training, so I'm always looking for advice or better ways to do things. I've stage managed, asm'd, produced, worked crew, etc mostly in community theatre settings, but recently have been asked to stage manage at a local branch campus of a pretty big University. I'm pretty proud of that fact.
Trivia/Fact: I stage managed the premiere production of The Scarlet Letter: A Musical at Theatre Harrisburg. The musical was a collaboration between college friends and developed at workshops in Boston, NYC, and DC before being fully produced for the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The collaborators expanded the show into a two-act show with full orchestra and staging. It was an AWESOME experience.
I'm looking forward to connecting with other stage managers on this forum.

New ish stage manager here. I've been doing technical backstage theatre for the past couple of years, and have ASMed 2 plays and 1 musical in 2021.
When reading through how to write a welcome article, I decided to go with a fact. The fact is that our school seemingly never has budget to buy anything for crew yet can pull of the most extravagant costumes and set. anyways, I'm happy to be here :p
