The PRODUCTION MANAGER, sometimes called the PM, is in charge of everyone who is a part of the production team – costumes, sets, lighting, sound, props, etc.

The STAGE MANAGER, (frequently referred to as SM), works on a production from the start of rehearsals through the last performance and coordinates schedules and information for the creative team.

The TECHNICAL SUPERVISOR/DIRECTOR/PRODUCER, also known as the TD or TP, is the most senior technical position you can have in the theatre.
