About me
My strength is being on the ground level on comms; ensuring that the traffic backstage and the interaction of the performers with the set and automation elements onstage are unfolding according to plan.When I memorize the intricacies and the order of events that happen in a production show; I then know how to pull something out of the fire when something goes awry. My adrenaline doesn’t usher me into flight mode but rather gears me to fight. I co-ordinate my actions and the actions of others in the interest of the safety of the performers. I do not panic when something may potentially hinder the wellbeing of the performers and/or the show in general. On the contrary, I always try to fix it the safety issue. This is my edge, this is how I stand out on a production team.
