Musical theatre provides some of the most exciting and challenging work for stage managers. Join Melissa Novecosky for a masterclass in stage managing musicals, where she digs into what separates musicals from regular plays and shares tips and tricks gleaned from years of experience. This seminar provides instruction and hands-on activities including blocking for musicals, scheduling multiple rehearsal halls, calling cues for musicals and more.

This workshop is suitable for professional and amateur stage managers who are new to musicals and those more experienced stage managers wishing to brush up their skills and level-up. Non-stage managers are welcome as well.
