Sorted by Home Location A-Z then last name		***This list was created and is maintained by a BIPOC identifying stage manager and all folks listed opt in to be on the list.***
This is a living spreadsheet of stage managers predominantly in the United States for theatrical productions. This is meant to be a resource for producers, institutions, gatekeepers, and other stage managers in hiring positions to seek BIPOC stage managers they may not otherwise know. This is not meant to be an answer to equity and inclusion in the field, but a small way to continue to uplift our community. If you want to share this list, either copy the link in your URL or you can use this shorter URL to share with folk: https://bit.ly/bipocsmlist

***If you wish to be added to this list, please submit via the linked google form and answering the questions there. It will then auto fill cells in here and any format tidying will be taken care of on our end (linking, etc.). Please do not submit other people's information, allow stage managers to opt-in to this list and submit themselves. If you want to update your information, resubmit and your old listing will be removed.

To access websites, resumes, and any link found on this sheet hover your mouse over the cell and it should show all links in the respective cell in a pop up window. There is an icon next to each link that allows you to copy it. If you attempt to copy using hotkeys it will not work.
