*What's a favourite memory from working at the Registry Theatre?*
During one of my first shifts as a Front of House Manager, I was standing in the front area with the lights down, listening to the music flowing from inside the theatre. I was alone, but very much a part of the performance process. It was very magical, and I hold the moment near and dear to my heart.
*What's your favourite spot in the theatre?*
Before the doors open and guests can take their seats, everyone gathers in the art gallery and mingles. Sometimes people talk, sometimes they stand as alone as they can, but the air is saturated with anticipation. The performers and crew are in their places, and it is like the whole world is waiting. This is the culmination of countless hours of work and dedication, and I love to see the Registry full of life.
*What's one thing you love about working at The Registry?*
Being a part of how art comes alive in the community is very special to me. I love to be around the creation of performance, and the Registry is a beautiful place where I can do that.
