Saison 1 · Épisode 5

mercredi 10 juin 2026 • Durée 46:37

The show must go on! Or must it…?

After the director and the designers all leave and the house lights go down, the theater is the stage manager’s domain. They’re an air traffic controller and flight attendant in one. And without them, a production can quickly go south.
