REVIEWS 

"I have been working in theatre for over eleven years and Laura is one of the most talented and level-headed stage managers that I have worked with in this time.  Laura knows how to balance a strong work ethic with a good attitude.  She was very pleasant in rehearsals and got along with everybody involved, but she also knew when it was time to be professional.  In terms of her stage managing skills, she excels.  I even learned a few things from her!  She is extremely organized and stays on top of paperwork.  She is eager to help when suggestions are needed and was my right-hand woman whenever I needed someone to help me brainstorm. In tech she was amazing.  She ran backstage very smoothly and we never had any large issues during the run of the show."

-Dana Burck, Stage Manager of Jersey Productions' West Side Story

"Thank you so much for everything you've done for Orpheus Descending.  I really appreciate your patience, sense of humor and organization skills."  

-Ashton Byrum, Director of CCM's Orpheus Descending

"She has a great way about her that is engaging and caring.  I see her in the stage management office working on prepping her next show, and I am constantly impressed with her ability to clearly communicate to all that are crossing her path. ...She is one of the best ASMs that I have worked with."

-Stacy N. Taylor, Stage Manager of CCM's Spring Awakening and Jersey Productions' Nunsense

"She is dedicated, hard working and has a great attention to detail. She also takes direction well and is a quick learner. Her upbeat and enthusiastic personality has a positive effect with all those she comes in contact with. ...Laura is skilled and well trained with most computer programs. Her paperwork is clear, concise and very detailed. Laura is also an invaluable stage manager on the deck. She is more than capable of handling cast and crew while running the deck of a large scale production. ...Laura is also good at problem solving, which is a great quality to have when working in live entertainment."

-Brittanie Sicker, Stage Manager of CCM's Rashomon and Falstaff, and Jersey Productions' Once Upon A Mattress

"Her understanding of the theatrical experience was impressive.  She was attentive to the needs of the directors as well as patient and responsive to the students.  ...She served as a mentor, stage hand, coordinator and substituted for absent staff."

-Robin Ballmer, Executive Director of Perrysburg Area Arts Council/Perrysburg Youth Summer Theatre
