Theatrical company management

Company management in a theater or traveling company entails all of the traveling, accomodation and day-to-day needs of the acting, design and technical company members. In regional theaters it often means renting apartments and hotel rooms, booking plane tickets, dealing with furnishing and cleaning for rented apartments, and dealing with special needs and requests. As actors can often be demanding creatures, this last part is no small matter. In a traveling company the company manager also arranges for travel and housing, but might also travel with the production, dealing with other matters as they arise.
