Just a warning my fellow #stagemanagers! I am only a part time SM (since no one will hire me!) I post about everything. :-) As Matt Stern said... I'm a unicorn!
Okay, since I'm going to be wearing my fight director hat a lot this winter, here's a 🧵 for the #theater people out there.
You should all take a basic #stagecombat class. All of you.
Not just #actors but #directors and #stagemanagers too. It's important stuff to know, and here's why. (1/)
If you have a theatre tech person in your life, here's a great small business to shop at (I truly have zero affiliation - I bought my kid some stuff here last year and it was quality merch).
