Lots of Questions

Thanks, everyone. UCF is on the list as she would like to work for Disney at some point. (Suffice it to say that we are Disney family.) Ole Miss does a lot of recruiting here, and we will have two of our drama kids there next year. Western Carolina is of high interest, too.

She does have a portfolio and a prompt books. We will be refining those over the summer. She did her first interviews and her first IE at the Georgia Thespian Conference in February. From that, she received some callbacks. We were pleased as: 1) this was our first time doing this, 2) she’s a junior, and 3) she hasn’t received much guidance in what to actually DO as stage manager. She has a wide range of experience from props, set building/painting, lighting, sound, and stage management. For this year’s musical, she is “Director’s Assistant,” which has basically been stage manager but shared duties.

I very much appreciate all your help and suggestions. I feel very much like a fish out of water here. (I was actually a theatre major many moons ago, but that was a different world and I changed majors after 2 years.) I have a lot of reading and planning to do!
