"In the darkened shadows of the stage lies an entire ecosystem of professionals making magic happen. Not enough is written about the incredible opportunities of a career spent behind the curtains. In this book Matt gives the world a chance to see with finer detail the numerous paths that make up this dynamic profession, and in doing so hopefully inspiring a new crop of young professionals destined to make the backstage magic happen."
