What do Mary-Louise Parker, Kathleen Turner, Frank Langella, Blythe Danner, Judith Ivy, Victoria Clark, Sherie Rene Scott, Danny Burstein, and Doug Hughes have in common? Each of them has worked with Bryce McDonald during his career as a New York Stage Manager.

While serving as Production Stage Manager for the 2014 off-Broadway run of "Tales from Red Vienna," Bryce McDonald took some time to answer questions about his career as a professional stage manager: how he got started and what he loves about stage management.

In interview format, Bryce recalls how his passion for theater led him to a rural Tennessee Playhouse where he gained the skills and experiences he needed to journey from the humble hills of Tennessee to the bright lights of Broadway. He talks about how his Playhouse mentor taught him to “run a room,” and how that knowledge served as a valuable asset when he arrived in New York. Bryce presents sound advice for those considering a career in theater… and predicts what he thinks contemporary theater might look like in the future.
