VOLUNTEER OF THE MONTH: SAV GUFFEY
Sav Guffey took our Sue E. Trotter Black Box by storm starring in ACT's Into the Woods as The Narrator in the summer of 2023.
They have since taken important—but often overlooked—roles behind the scenes like scenic painting, stage managing, light design, set design, and the most often overlooked curtain puller.
Ellen Kimball, our Interim Executive Director, worked with Sav, while directing music for last season’s Annie.
She said, “Sav was the curtain puller. Sitting on a tiny stool, back against the wall—in the dark middle of the orchestra—Sav remained cool, calm and alert; hands on the ropes of the mid-traveler curtain, ready to reveal the action (or hide the scene change) as the moment demanded. All with a beautiful smile bestowed upon me to encourage my conducting efforts.”
Most recently, Sav was stage manager for ACT's Steel Magnolias, and this summer, Sav has worn several hats as stage manager, set designer, set builder, scenic painter, lighting designer, and props and costumes designer for ACT's Mean Girls.
Later this season, Sav will tackle scenic painting and prop work for ACT's Ragtime.
Sav is an invaluable asset to our organization, and we are so proud to have them on our team.
We appreciate all the hard work and countless hours that Sav puts in to make our productions top notch.=
Join us in celebrating Sav, our August Volunteer of the Month!
