About me
I am an experienced Stage Manager and Show Caller, having gained my experience across the West End, touring internationally and across the UK, as well as in regional theatres in both roles of DSM and ASM, therefore I believe I have the necessary skills and experience to provide your show with the strongest support I can.More recently I have been ASM/Book Cover at Mamma Mia! The Musical in the West End, a time which I have loved and enjoyed, however I am now looking to both further my abilities and work on new productions. I have experience working on busy technical shows with automation, performer flying and illusions, I find I thrive in a busy and complex environment and stay calm under the pressure of a large show.
I believe I am a positive person who would bring a keen and bubbly attitude to the team, I consider myself an approachable and encouraging person and try to make the cast and crew feel they can come to me at any time for any issue they may be having and need resolve for.
I am a fast learner who prides herself on her ability to learn and perform multiple tracks to a high standard and I have no issues working in a fast paced, high pressure environment. I look forward to each new day and strives to keep myself and my team motivated to give the best the best performance possible.
