The General Manager of Goodspeed Musicals is a key member of the Senior Operations Team who oversees the central functions of the organization’s administration and operations, including human resources, artist contracting and relations, company management, legal, IT, and more. Reporting to the Managing Director, the General Manager ensures that the organization’s people at all levels (staff, contracted artists, and more) have the necessary support to carry out their work and will play a key role in fostering a healthy culture in which team members and the artistic process can thrive. Note that while the General Manager plays a large role in the productions themselves, their role has a broader focus across the organization.
Goodspeed Musicals is the foremost expert in American Musical Theatre. Founded almost 60 years ago, Goodspeed has produced 280 musicals, including over 70 world premieres, and exported 21 productions to Broadway. Goodspeed gained worldwide recognition for the creation of three of Broadway’s longest-running musicals—Annie, Man of La Mancha, and Shenandoah—and has been recognized within the industry with two Special Tony Awards.
The mission of Goodspeed is to be the leader in preserving and producing musical theatre of the highest quality. This season, Goodspeed will offer more than 326 performances from April to December of new and newly revived musicals. Performances will be offered on their main stage of the historic Opera House in the bucolic village of East Haddam.
