Melissa Edwards

Melissa Edwards (Stage Manager) is grateful to be working with Servant Stage again in her sixth show as stage manager. She is thankful to get to work on this beloved, classic show with such a great cast.  After earning her Bachelor's degree in Theatre from the University of Central Arkansas, Melissa worked behind the scenes at theatres in Kentucky, Nebraska, Virginia, New Jersey, and Connecticut before landing in Pennsylvania. She was the Associate Lighting Designer at Sight & Sound Theatres for 10 years, where she met her husband and biggest supporter, Curt. Since then, Melissa has worked with Franklin & Marshall College, Lancaster Bible College, Reverie, Sight & Sound Conservatory, Dutch Wonderland, the Barn in Strasburg, and Servant Stage, focusing on both lighting design and stage management. She is passionate about supporting shows behind the scenes and mentoring students on the technical side of theatre so they too might discover a new passion.
