Shadowing: General Q&A

<< < (21/23) > >>

Jessie_K:
Send it to the PSM, even if they aren't the one that will be with you during the show, they have the final approval power.

jfortunato:
Has anyone shadowed a stage manager of a broadway show in rehearsal?  Is that possible?  If it is, how did you get in touch with the SM since there is not a stage door to send a letter to?  I have shadowed the SM's of several national tours and a show on broadway during performance, but I would really like to see how a rehearsal is ran in the real world.  I could learn a lot from this.

MatthewShiner:
Rehearsals are tricky.

You would be surprised how small most rehearsal halls are in New York, and how many people in the hall.  (my current musical I had 58 people in the rehearsal room today).  Also, rehearsal isn't typically the best place for outsiders . . .

Now, tech or preview rehearsals might be a different story.

(And to be honest, rehearsal is the one thing that is pretty much the same everywhere . . . )

Hello

I have moved from NYC to Seattle and was wondering if there are any Stage managers in the Washington area I could Shadow? I had to take a break from stage managing for a year and half and now that I am moving, was looking to shadow a Stage manager and explore opportunities in Seattle

Thanks

I'm going to see the touring version of Peter & the Star Catcher in March. I want to shadow the SM but I can't seem to find out who it is. Any advice on finding out who the stage manager is.
