Who is Abbie Colton?

Good question!  Here's a little biographical information about me!

I obtained a bachelor's in Theater from Michigan State University in 2001.  After that, I was a freelance stage manager in the Bay Area, CA and a production assistant at Berkeley Reportory Theater.  I've been in Chicago since 2003 and have worked with WNEP Theater and The Factory Theater in such esteemed roles as Stage Manager, Assistant Producer, Technical Director, and Production Manager.  For the past few years, I've been slowly working towards a Masters in Performing Arts Management from Columbia College and with the completion of this show, I should have it!  In May of 2008, I was honored to be accepted as a member of The Jeff Awards Committee.  Since then I have been continually amazed by the exceptional work I see in Chicago theater night after night. 

I first worked on this script as a stage manager for the 2005 workshop of Dave Stinton's The Lost Shakespeare Play.  Now I'm thrilled to have the opportunity to work with Dave and Jen again to give this show the full production it so richly deserves.
