About Renee

Philosophy & Biography

MY Philosophy

​I believe that as a stage manager and a production manager I am an artist and collaborator in the process, and to that end, it is incumbent upon me to anticipate the needs of the project and the team in order to facilitate and support the creative process. I believe it is critical to listen and to be an active participant in the conversation, and to do so, I need to speak the language of the actors, director, designers, and production team. I believe in the importance of mentoring the next generation of theatre artists, and in the process, learning from them as well. And I believe in the power of baked goods for spreading goodwill among the team, particularly during tech week.
