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 35 years. Based in Los Angeles, she has toured the country with shows including Wicked, City of Angels and Les Misérables, as well as Germany and Austria with Sisterella. Jill has over 200 shows to her credit, mostly thanks to her favorite theatres including the Pasadena Playhouse, McCoy Rigby Entertainment, Broadway at Music Circus, Reprise Theatre Company and the Geffen Playhouse. Jill teaches Stage Management at Occidental College and UCLA, and enjoys guest lecturing around the country.
