Theatre Productions

Lapin Lapin

This was my first production at Pittsburg State University and lead to a lot of lasting relationships. It also reintroduced me to quick changes and the amount of multitasking and time management that those bring.

Theatre Unplugged: Purple Ink

This was my introduction to short form theatre, as well as working with a newer director. I had very good experience with this production and I learned how to work with multiple different set setups at once.

The 39 Steps

I worked the projector for this production and it was a very interesting experience. It was my first time working up in the booth and it taught me how to efficiently multitask and improve my hand-eye coordination due to needing it for timing.

South Pacific

I worked wigs for this production and this was my first traveling Broadway production. I restyled the wigs and helped pin the wigs on the actors. I remember being terrified of digging the pins into the actors' scalps, though they kept reassuring me that it wouldn't have been a big deal.

Once Upon a Mattress

I forgot to grab a program for this production, however, I had three different roles in this production with 5 quick changes in the first act. This was the first time I was ever mic'd and the second musical I have been in. 

Theatre Unplugged: Relative Strangers

I directed in one of the productions. I picked my one-act due to the balance of comedy and drama, as well as the general chaos of the piece when it comes to the characters. I found the challenges of casting and directing to be an informative experience. Working with the other directors came with a completely different set of experiences and while I do think we could have done better, I would not trade those experiences.

Emilia

I had 4 different roles in this production with 10 quick changes. It caused me to learn how to efficiently utilize space and time while still best utilizing help when needed. I also had to memorize two dances, as well as Shakespeare and I despise Shakespeare.

Theatre Unplugged: Bad Auditions by Bad Actors

I had several quick changes in this production, but that was one of the easier parts of these roles. This also came with the challenges of different levels of physical extortion and vocal techniques.

Not Pictured: Annie

I worked wigs for this Broadway production. I primarily styled, shuttled and re-pinned the wigs. This was also interesting as the person in charge of these wigs didn't use much hairspray on the wigs and I was able to more take down an restyling of the wigs versus my previous experience where I refreshed the hairspray, for the most part.
