About me
My dep work with Funny Girl required me to learn three tracks; stage right, stage left and the travelator operation. Each track requires a different set of skills and knowledge which has enhanced my skill set and improved my ability to learn and retain several tracks at once. Working on Funny Girl has been a great experience for me as this is the largest scale show I have worked on.Having worked at the Ambassadors Theatre in the West End for 18 months as a Deputy ASM with Stomp, I have experience of working under pressure in a fast paced, prop heavy, physical show.
At Stomp I have to manage sixteen different cast members playing eight roles on rotation. With each cast member having their own set up and requirements during the show, it is essential that I am calm under pressure, learn each cast member's needs and can constantly adapt to enable the smooth running of the show.
The set and props are under constant stress so it is essential to check they are safe, be able to repair or replace broken props with speed and maintain the stocks of perishables. With no DSM on the show it is often left to me to give clearance, give the FOH and BOH calls and time the show.
I have worked in theatre for many years, in many different roles, with a vast amount of training in regards to theatre safety and practices with Delfont Mackintosh Theatres and more recently with Stomp Productions Ltd. My experience as an Usher, Bartender and Hospitality Host has enabled me to enhance my communication skills in dealing with people of all different ages and needs. This led to me becoming the Stage Door Keeper where I gained even more experience with stage crews and actors - how they operate, their safe working practices and how to enable the smooth running of performances, especially with the communication between each department.
I have also worked a lot in film, especially within the art department and production elements. I have experience in making and buying set dressing and props, scheduling and management of casts, extras, make-up and costumes.
