I really want to be a stage manager

2:51 STRESS LEVEL: 10000000%

As a stage manager, this makes my heart smile

I would be so distracted by the show and forget to call the show. Props to stage managers.

Actors being nice to stage managers? I was SM once and everyone was so mean to me 😣 Stage Managers are truly superheroes 😞❤️

kat heck That's bull!! Stage Managers are the GLUE of the show. I cannot stand actors who are mean to tech. I'm so sorry you had that experience.

You were working with a bunch of narcs, that's why. Some casts have non-disordered people, but unfortunately, showbiz does have a tendency to attract narcissists. If you ever try the role again, hope you know ahead of time who you'd be working with, and decide whether you want to take the job, accordingly. ;)

Mo Poppins Luckily it was my high school's production, so at least it wasn't professional. But I was pretty much in charge of organizing everything (I played all three roles, also playing a minor character when someone backed out last minute) and pretty much everyone was being kinda mean to me lmao. I'm sure it was just jokes but I did expect some respect, considering I was organizing everything (including props and writing down blocking and helping individual actors since I'd done acting twice before then) AND I was at every rehearsal (even when I was super sick, the director lovingly forced me to go home) so I expected people to take me more seriously, even if they were sorta my friends. But it's all good, cuz I got a great recommendation for college and I'd do SM again at my college, although I much prefer acting :')

With such an eclectic and useful skill set, you'll have even more doors open for you. Actors aren't known to be the most "together" people, so knowing that you ARE, you're going to be more employable in that respect, and if you wanted to create your own projects, being organized will come in handy for all the hats you'll be wearing (maybe literally AND figuratively?).

Mo Poppins Oh wow, thank you! I very much enjoy writing musicals and want to produce some of my own one day, so I figured the experience would come in handy ☺️

I really appreciate this video!! 💞💞 Being an actor and stage manager, a lot of people dont get to see into the world of what an SM does :)

Why would someone give this a thumbs down?

Dream team!

It works differently on Broadway productions. The ASMs rotate through roles for shows, with one calling cues. The DSM will usually be there to supervise and to lead the team while maintaining control over background paperwork etc.
