ROLE - Directing Intern to Director Diane Paulus

June - August 2015

American Repertory Theatre, Cambridge, MA

As Directing Intern to the American Repertory Theater’s Tony Award-winning Artistic Director Diane Paulus, I worked closely with the creative team of Waitress from its first table reading to opening night. I assisted Ms. Paulus and her directing team with taking blocking notes, liaising with other departments in the production, maintaining new pages as the musical was being rewritten, creating individual memos for each member of cast during previews, and more.

Roles: Creative Assistant & Social Media Manager

June 2017 - Present

The Other Palace & Theatre Royal Haymarket, London, UK

I have been a Creative Assistant to Heathers the Musical since June 2017, when the musical had a workshop at The Other Palace, London, which sold out in minutes. I continued to assist the Creative Team (composer Laurence O’Keefe, writer Kevin Murphy, and director Andy Fickman) when the musical returned to The Other Palace for a full run in June-August 2018, and when it transferred to the West End (Theatre Royal Haymarket) in September 2018. My role consisted work such as liaising with other departments, editing the Samuel French manuscript prior to publication, tracking script changes, and more.

In May 2019 I was hired by the production team to run the Heathers’ social media and popular online presence. I maintain the production’s Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. The production will embark on a UK tour in 2020.
