Assistant Director

Nov 2018 - Apr 2019
After 3 years as sole Production Assistant for Helen Hayes award-winning Fiasco Theater Company I was promoted to Assistant Director of their major off-Broadway production of "Merrily We Roll Along" at the Roundabout Theatre Company. I worked alongside composer and lyricist Stephen Sondheim who was actively revising this version of his classic Broadway musical. I fastidiously collated scripts across four historical drafts, and assisted the communication between Director Noah Brody and the artistic and production teams. I shadowed the Artistic Directors as they developed a brand new and nuanced interpretation of a classic narrative. Show less
