skills and habits of a professional stage manager, as well as distinguishing
and generating effective relationships with all members of the production
team. The student’s time is divided between classroom
work and production experience on three to four classic plays. Training and practical opportunities are also provided in the related field
of event management.

with an increased concentration on advanced organizational, managerial,
and communication techniques. Students continue to make
specific application of classroom work in the production of four
to six plays.
Year Three
In the third year stage management students are fully accountable for
a season of ten to twelve plays including oversight of the master
rehearsal/production schedule and orchestrating the many activities occurring
on and off campus. Course work in this year consists only of tutorials
and production assignments.
