I took the first seminar of my Lighting Course, on Saturday, 2nd of March 2013.
Being the amazing wizard I am, I left my notes on the course in the theater.
I talked to many of the course attendees and i asked about the role of stage manager and what it entails.
A general opinion was;
-Make's sure that actors are healthy, mentally and pyshically
-Make sure prop manager has everything they need
-Make sure really everyone has what they need
-Make sure actors have transportation
-Keep a buffer between the world and the director
This really redefines my expectations of a stage manager. In all the productions i had done before the director had done all of this. Well these roles are essential tot he smooth running fo the production and they seem well within my realm of ability.
