The play's the thing!
Actually, that should be "the plays are the things," but that didn't sound as nice.
Here I'm going to try to list all of the theatre that I've done, in reverse order (newest first).
| Blackbird |
| Role: |
Assistant Stage Manager |
| Who & Where: |
Groundworks Theatre, Darkhorse Theatre |
| When: |
February 3-11, 2006 |
| Notes: |
Depressing as hell. I was idle for most of the show; I only had four cues for pecking at the window. On the plus side, I've never been a title character before, and as a techie no less! Because of the two-person cast, I had my own dressing room, too. |
| Masked Theatre |
| Role: |
Stage Manager |
| Who & Where: |
John Holleman and Company, Darkhorse Theatre |
| When: |
January 12-14, 2006 |
| Notes: |
Just a collection of random scenes done in masks. Pretty cool, though I think it should have been a bit more structured. This was my first show with Molly after we started dating; she was in the booth and I was backstage, though. :\ |
| Merry *bleep*ing Christmas |
| Role: |
Assistant Stage Manager |
| Who & Where: |
Groundworks Theatre, Darkhorse Theatre |
| When: |
December 2-10, 2005 |
| Notes: |
This was pretty much a sequel to Hellcab, though all the scenes were written by individuals involved with the company. It could have done with some editing, but still fun. |
| Equus |
| Role: |
Stage Manager |
| Who & Where: |
ACT 1, Darkhorse Theatre |
| When: |
October 21-29, 2005 |
| Notes: |
I didn't want to stage manage; I originally signed on as the ASM. However, similar to Little Women, I had no one to assist, so I got the promotion. I made fun of everything from the booth. |
| The Normal Heart |
| Role: |
Assistant Stage Manager |
| Who & Where: |
Rhubarb Theatre, Darkhorse Theatre |
| When: |
June 9-12, 16-19, 23-25 2005 |
| Notes: |
Grr... Nice people in the cast, but on the whole, I hated the cast. Did find my ideal A-ASM, though: Molly was great to have on my crew. Totally dependable, read my mind at times, and cute to boot. :) |
| M. Butterfly |
| Role: |
Assistant Stage Manager |
| Who & Where: |
ACT 1, Darkhorse Theatre |
| When: |
April 29-30, May 1, 5-8, 12-14 2005 |
| Notes: |
Another show where all I did was strip people and dress them again. Difference being it was a guy dressed as a woman, and there were several (13) complex changes. |
| Medea |
| Role: |
Assistant Stage Manager |
| Who & Where: |
John Holleman Company, Parthenon |
| When: |
April 7, 8, 10, 14, 15, 17 2005 |

Aside from helping Erik in and out of his costumes and masks, I just stood around for a long, long time. |
| Driving Miss Daisy |
| Role: |
Assistant Stage Manager |
| Who & Where: |
ACT 1, Darkhorse Theatre |
| When: |
February 17-19, 2005 |

I just ASMed it for one weekend because their regular ASM couldn't be there (her mother was having an operation). |
| Hellcab |
| Role: |
Assistant Stage Manager |

Fun fun fun. Great cast, great show, and my first paying gig. Hell yeah! |
| Little Women |
| Role: |
Stage Manager |
| Who & Where: |
Murfreesboro Little Theatre, dunno where |
| When: |
November 19-21, 26-28 2004 |
| Notes: |
I wasn't supposed to be the Stage Manger, but it turns out I had no one to assist. A fun enough show, but a bit frustrating (I met some cool people, though). |
| Tartuffe |
| Role: |
Assistant Stage Manager |
| Who & Where: |
ACT 1, Darkhorse Theatre |
| When: |
October 22-24, 29-31, November 5-6 2004 |
| Notes: |
A fun show to do, but I must say, one of the most immature casts I've had to deal with. Loud as hell, I felt like I was babysitting them on more than one occasion. |
