EXPECTATIONS
The Company Manager is the leader on the road.

Additional expectations: The Company Manager must have a valid driver’s license and insurance as they will be responsible for driving one of the two vans.

During the performance they will run front of house and give a pre-show speech. Company Manager will consolidate reports for ALT reporting, and help the process and production in other ways, as needed; this may include going on with a script in hand if an actor is sick. Schools have an option to do a facilitated talk-back after each performance for up to 45 minutes that the Company Manager will facilitate.
ALT staff will be available to assist with critical components along the way.
