Introduction to Stage Management
Contributing Educator: Lori Koenig
This is an introductory unit into the world of Stage Management. The focus of the unit will be to give students an opportunity to practice many of the tasks and responsibilities of a stage manager within the structure of the classroom in the hopes that they can transfer those skills outside of the classroom in a real world setting, if they choose.
