During Brandon Allmon-Jackson’s major theatrical productions, he is never seen by the audiences. But as a stage manager fulfilling his dream of working on Broadway, he’s the person most responsible for making sure big acts—including The Music Man, Back to the Future, and Sunset Boulevard—go off without a hitch.
In the years since he graduated from Ball State in 2012, Brandon has applied the skills he learned in the classroom, along with his dedication and drive, to stand out in the competitive world of commercial theatre. He’s also dedicated himself to providing more opportunities for artists of color.
In this episode, Brandon talks about how the confidence he built and connections he made at his alma mater helped him advance professionally. In less than 10 years, he’s gone from stage managing regional theater and cruise ship performances to working on the biggest shows on Broadway.
Brandon also reveals why he’s grateful for his humble Southern upbringing and how, by mentoring the next generation of talent at Ball State, he’s giving back in a way that upholds the promise of Beneficence.
