A stage manager plays a crucial role in the smooth running of theatre productions and live events. They are responsible for organising rehearsals, communicating between directors, actors, and backstage crew, and ensuring that every performance goes ahead as planned. Stage managers manage everything from the timing of lights and sound to the movement of props and scenery. During performances, they are often found in the wings or at the control desk, making sure cues are followed and solving any problems that arise. The job requires excellent organisational skills, attention to detail, and the ability to stay calm under pressure. Many stage managers start their careers as assistant stage managers and work their way up through experience and further training.
