During my two weeks, I assisted the ASM and the SM with any task that needed to be completed. For example, I was given the responsibility to source and buy certain props both in shops and online.
At the start of each day, I would come into the rehearsal room and help out with the set up and anything else that was needed to be done before the rehearsal started.
I went to a number of places in London to source props, this gave me even more knowledge as to where to buy certain props. I also went to Kempton Market, this was the biggest market I have been too, it had all sorts of different props and set in different eras. I will certainly be going back there for any other productions I do in the future.
I have learnt that as an ASM your relationship with the Director, Stage Manager and Designer is very different. Therefore, it is vital to be able to communicate in the correct manner, which is something I will take with me in the future.
