I am a college student who has been involved in theatre all his life and has had experiences stage managing shows over the past few years in my spare time. Recently I have been wanting to change direction and start to look toward a profession in stage management (preferably with musical theatre and opera productions, but straight theatre is also an option).
Do you have any suggestions about what my next step should be? At the moment I am leaning toward stepping away from college and taking an internship for a semester to see what happens. I know I really should finish up college first, but school has been very suffocating this past year and I need to try something different. I am not very good with set construction or lights (if you explain it first then I'm fine, but I'm no expert). Although I do sew and as stage manager I have tended to end up defacto props person. I don't know where to start looking for an internship, or what type of internship I should persue.
Any ideas?
