Kim Rutherford is our mentor.
Kim's first time on stage was in the 9th grade and had a wonderful time being the gal with the sign who tripped across the stage. She had her first taste of professional theatre about the same time when doing a torchbearer for Campfire. She thought she would be painting and making sets but ended up working with Tulsa Opera, she continued on through graduating from High School. After graduation, she got married and started a family then left the theatre behind. When an empty nest set in and a manager at work told her "go back to doing theatre" she did that. She worked a few seasons at Theatre Tulsa as a customer and Sally Barnes showed him the ropes for Stage Manager during "Tuesdays With Morrie'. She fell in love with Stage Managing, and has worked at Sand Springs Playhouse, Broken Arrow Community Playhouse, Owasso Community Theatre Community and other local theatres. She is the Vice President for Broken Arrow Community Playhouse and on the board Tela'tulsa.
