2015 was the 10th season for Boston Midsummer Opera, and my third season as the Production Manager. We produce one opera every summer - this season was Martha by Friedrich Von Flotow. Pre-production begins a year prior and our Company travels from across the globe to join us every July. This season was our last of a 10 year run at the Boston University Tsai Center for the Arts.
As the Production Manager, my primary duties include realizing the vision of the Stage Director and Conductor for each opera; supervising all Design and Production departments; managing the season budget; hiring and contracting all employees; and ensuring a smooth and successful production process from inception through closing night.
