I bought this book for my first paid stage management job, and it's really, really helpful. It's done all the trial-and-error work for me, so it's saving me a lot of time and hassle. It's making me look so organized and on top of things (which I'm not, naturally).
This is the best United States stage management procedural books out there and there are many. Easy-to-read and adheres to current industry standards. Used as a text for a university introductory stage management course I teach for over 10 years.
I chose this rating because the buying and shipping process was very easy and I had no problems.I like this product because it's for class and I'm learning a lot about theatre that I would have never known.I would reccommend this product to anyone in the theatre business.
I used the material to teach interns the fine points needed to become stage managersthe material was easy to read and understandable
Great advice for beginning stage managers. A useful reference guide for all aspects of theatre, complete with diagrams and spreadsheets. A+

This book is an easy read and is very helpful in learning about stage management I didn't know it was that hard to do
Book came quickly and was exactly as pictured. Just what I needed for class
