Stage Manager available!

Hello,

my name is Anna. I have stage managing experience.

I am currently available. If you need a stage manager for your show, please let me know.
I live in Perth, and I would be happy to send you my CV if you are interested.
I am willing to do co-op and paid work. Depending on my availability, I am also happy to do volunteer work.

Bye,
Anna.

I have written a play called "squash the floonie!" It is fucking brilliant. Will you stage manage it? I think you would be ideal. Also, would you be in it too? And I think it might be made into a film. -Stephen Speilberg is ('nt) interested!!! It involves me squashing a floonie and singing about it. Please do it! Pleeeease! I will be very sad if you don't. Another thing: I have had a bit of trouble with my brain. Will you soothe it? Thankyou! Look forward to hearing from you. Hairy grass head.

How do you stage manage a show while being in it? Hand yourself some props from the wings? Call cues on your headset while saying lines?

Seeing as the vast majority of professional performances I've been in have been staged in non-theatre venues, it happens for us all the time. In other words, we don't really have a stage manager, and the people who are in it take care of all the stage management-type jobs.

Mainly possible because there are no lighting effects. Performers operate sound cues, either from offstage or by remote trigger. If an actor really needs to be handed a prop rather than managing it themselves, they're not likely to get work with us!

Have also been numerous occasions where someone in a predominantly stage management or musician role has also played minor performance roles, in between attending to offstage duties.

Cheers,
Craig

I've never really seen it done before... I guess I'm just lucky enough to work in nice venues, with techies...
