Lawrence Stern learned basic stage management at Eldred Hall Theatre (Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, OH), where he earned an MA in Theatre. While serving in the Air Force, he was the manager of the Armed Forces Radio Television Station on Crete (Iraklion Air Station) and directed the little base theatre at Offutt AFB, NB, and Iraklion Air Station. He stage managed for years in the Los Angeles/Hollywood area (Tustin Playhouse, Actors Studio West, Equity Library Theatre, Players Ring Gallery, Las Palmas, Huntington Hartford, Greek) and Sacramento (Music Circus) before turning to directing, writing, and teaching. Jill Gold has been an Equity stage manager for over 40 years. Based in Los Angeles, she toured the United States with 7 productions including Wicked, City of Angels, and Les Misérables, and saw Europe with Sisterella. Jill has over 250 shows to her credit thanks to producers such as the Pasadena Playhouse, McCoy Rigby Entertainment, Broadway at Music Circus, Reprise Theatre Company, and the Geffen Playhouse. She also stage manages operas and events, teaches Stage Management at Occidental College and UCLA, and enjoys guest lecturing around the country.
