SHADOWBOXER

Maryland Opera Studio
Spring 2010
Job Description: assistant stage manager
Notable Production Information: Shadowboxer was a world premiere. The scenic design involved simply screen and 40 different chairs and stools of 6 different heights and types. I created an extremely intensive tracking system to aid the opera singers in memorizing their chair configurations. I was also responsible for prop tracking, costume tracking, calling entrances on both sides of the stage, monitoring flyrail operation, and assisting in quick changes.
