As a university theater major transitioning into the professional world, I found the 9th Edition of 'Stage Management' absolutely invaluable. This book is not only comprehensive but also incredibly practical with its hands-on approach. I loved how it balanced theory with real-life anecdotes and examples. The step-by-step guidance on different scenarios you'll face backstage was so well articulated, it made complex processes seem simple. Bonus, it arrived quicker than expected and in pristine condition—I was able to dive in sooner than I'd hoped! Fantastic purchase, highly recommend this for anyone serious about moving into stage management.
