is a ______ artist

stage manager

Kelly is a Stage Management Artist

"The costumes and props give the production a perfect backyard kid show feel, while the flawlessly executed sound and lights remind you it’s anything but.” - Metro Boston

"The action was so impossibly fast that I imagine every moment had to have been preplanned and constantly rehearsed. This show took work. It also seems like a wildly difficult production to run, as every prop, costume piece, and cue must be specifically placed and called. The show was stage managed by Kelly Smith." - Broadway World
