Arts & Media Placement Portrait
I really enjoy the hands-on aspect of my job. It is a unique experience to get to work in a stage management capacity on three different shows, two of which are devised. I’m really learning a lot about working on shows of a more devised nature with minimal resources. I really enjoy getting to work with three different directors, each of whom have their own style of running a room. It is also really great to get to work with three separate casts of young people who all bring such great energy to the room.
