Manage episode 482505112 series 3533990
Today’s interview is with Jim Guy (he/him), legendary props wizard. Jim has propped an estimated 600 plays, musicals and operas. His work has appeared on and Off-Broadway, on tour, in print, on television, in museums and onstage. Jim was Properties Director at Milwaukee Repertory Theater for 24 seasons. In his “retirement” he now freelances, teaches, consults and serves as Membership Co-Chair and Past President of the Society of Props Managers (S*P*M). We’re going to learn about his upcoming book “Firearms Safety for Stage”, finding fun, perspective, and personal connection in the workplace, and steeling yourself to rejection.
One takeaway I can offer you already? Ask yourself ‘what did I learn from this?’
