Excellence in Stage Management Award
Justin was nominated by Hale Centre Theatre, who stated, "We are so grateful for Justin's hard work and dedication that has helped to make the shows great. He doesn't always get the recognition from the public that he deserves. We hope he knows how grateful we are to him."
This award honors a stage, company or production manager within our theatre community who has gone above and beyond their job duties, throughout the course of their body of work. The individual truly exemplifies the best qualities of a stage manager: patience, diplomacy, organization and a sense of humor.
Congratulations Justin!
