“I absolutely LOVE working with Stacy Hawking. It is inspiring to work alongside someone who is passionate about her work, and it shows. As an artist of color, Stacy makes me feel seen amongst the room. Not only is she an amazing collaborator, but she really has a way of creating a safe space for her artists and letting their voices be heard. Stacy will never fail you, but she will challenge you. It is the greatest feeling to work with someone that not only believes in you and gives you this new confidence, but is able to bring out the best in you and your work.”

“Stacy Hawking ran one of the most comfortable, collaborative, and efficient rehearsal rooms I have ever been apart of. Her strong foundation and vision for Into The Woods allowed the company to color their own unique stories to into the storybook skeleton she cleverly framed the show through.”

“Working with Stacy is an actor's dream. The space that she creates feels safe to explore in at all times. She encourages each person to incorporate their personal identity into the role they are playing, she allows humans to be full humans. There is no “in spite of” in her rehearsal room, only positive affirmation of identity and whole self. The process is collaborative and mutually respectful, there is no hierarchy in the room. Stacy is a master of incorporating movement into storytelling. She creates beautiful pictures that enhance the feeling and heart of the moment, elevating the heightened nature of theater. Seeing Stacy’s name on a project would draw me to it immediately. She is brilliant.”

“Working with Stacy is such a gift. Not only does she lead every space she’s in with unmatched kindness and poise, but she is a true collaborator who values the exchange of energy and ideas between colleagues. Every artistic environment would benefit immeasurably from having Stacy Hawking at its helm.”

“Stacy has excellent personal skills and creative gifts, but I think her kindness and open spirit are what makes her stand out as a leader. She both gives artists the space to create and ensures that they are challenged at the same time. Working with her I always felt invited to be vulnerable and respected as an artist.”
