COLLEGIATE THEATRE

Three Sisters

Role: Stage Manager

Three Sisters was the third show of the 2023 fall semester at Baylor University. It was directed by Lucas Skjaret. I was tasked with overseeing 14 actors, 2 swings, 2 production assistants, 6 scenic crew members and 1 assistant stage manager. This show had large scenic changes, on stage food and drinks, quick changes, wig changes and intimacy choreography. The diverse number of moving parts built my facilitation and communication skills from rehearsal to tech to performances. The calling for the show was also multilayered. There were lighting, sound, projection, scenic pieces, and actor cues that were called through the duration of the show. Three Sisters was a beautifully produced show that challenged me.

Once

Role: Stage Manager

I was the Stage Manager for Baylor Theatre’s Production of Once in the spring of 2023. This show offered a range of dynamic problem-solving opportunities. As Stage Manager, I oversaw a cast of 16 actors, 1 production assistant and 1 assistant stage manager. The actors collectively played over 40 instruments live on stage. Managing instrument tracking, instrument repair and proper warm ups/tuning timing was unique to this process. There was also an added element of the cast playing the preshow music live that created interesting timing and calling challenges.
