This role is integral to delivering high-quality live performances, ensuring seamless technical execution, and maintaining clear communication across all departments. The Stage Manager will work closely with directors, cast, venue technicians, and production staff to prepare, coordinate, and execute all technical and show-running elements.

Key responsibilities include reviewing technical materials such as images, videos, sound assets, scripts, and cue sheets; analyzing scripts to understand show structure and technical cues; preparing and updating cue sheets; attending rehearsals to practice cues and refine timing; and liaising with venue technical teams to align on equipment and setup requirements.

Strong organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills are essential, along with the ability to work independently and manage preparation time effectively. Availability to attend in-person rehearsals, tech rehearsals on show dates, and onboarding meetings with local teams is required.
