Course Description

Conflict Resilience. Developing the comfort and skills necessary to respond to disagreements and mis-alignments is essential for leaders and stage managers. Through a series of discussions, experienced guests, reading, role-playing, and in-class exercises, this workshop style class will present an overview of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) and Restorative Process theory and techniques with a practical focus on building our skills and comfort level to be able to reframe conflict as a chance for learning, understanding, and change.

Exceeding EDI. The impact of incorporating Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, Accessibility and Belonging into the commercial theater industry in a post George Floyd era. As stage managers, it is crucial that there is a framework for supporting the evolving identities and needs of the many populations present in a theater setting. Through a series of articles, in-class discussions, written reflections and conversations with working professionals, we will develop an understanding of a variety of social issues that currently exist in the industry while building a toolkit on how to navigate them.
