THTR1039 · Theater
Morrissey College of Arts & Sciences
Every department production has two or more assistant stage managers. These students help the stage manager to run rehearsals and are in charge of backstage during performances. ASMs must be at many of the regular rehearsals and at all of the technical and dress rehearsals and performances for the show that they are assigned. ASMing counts as a one credit lab. While it takes a little more time than other labs, you learn how all the theatrical pieces of a show fit together. This lab requires department permission; however, there are no majors only restrictions and no experience is necessary to assistant stage manage a show.
