Metta likes... Stage Managers

I'm going to start this post with a declaration of interest - my background is Stage Management, and I still retain a very Stage Management-y view on theatre. That said, this is written thinking about all the Stage Managers who have helped smooth the creative process for our shows.

Our 2010 production of The Man With the Flower in His Mouth (which is touring in May, watch this space for dates) started with 5, the recent production of Beckett's Krapp's Last Tape in Town really pushed the boat out and started with almost 20! And my current (non-Metta) show - Barrie Keeffe's Gotcha at Riverside Studios (for Jagged Fence) starts with at least 3.
