The Tragicomedy of Julia Caesar

Shaping the show from a new seat

As Assistant Director, I was given the chance to shape the show from a new perspective. I worked closely with the director on blocking, ran rehearsals, organized the rehearsal logs, and made sure communication between cast, crew, and creatives was clear and positive.

I found that leadership sometimes means stepping back and letting others shine, and other times means stepping forward to resolve issues before they grow. I learned to listen — really listen — to both cast concerns and director vision.
