About me

Having worked in Stage Management for over 15 years I have been able to develop my skills in all aspects of the job, including leadership and managing a department, working within the financial and time constraints of a production whilst maintaining the creative team's artistic vision. I am an accomplished prop maker and I enjoy researching and sourcing period props and furniture, I hold a full clean driving licence and have experience of Van and Mini bus driving. I enjoy supporting Actors during rehearsals and in performance and I work well with other theatre departments, assisting and supporting effective communication and problem solving.
Additional skills:
I have good IT skills and am proficient in Word and Excel and have used several Image/drawing packages. Whilst working at the Northcott I was on the Health and Safety, and Staff Development (Investors in People) committee's.
Industry awards:
I was nominated for the SMA Stage Manager 2006 Award.
