After certain remarks at the first presidential debate, the hashtags #ProudBoys #StandDown and #StandBy started trending. It didn’t take long before many in our industry took over #ProudBoys along with #PrideBoys to flood their feeds. It was suggested in a couple Facebook groups that we stage managers (and others we work with, too!) should do our part to take #Standby.
In order to combine with several other pertinent hashtags keeping up awareness of our struggle during the pandemic. Here’s what I wrote:
In #LiveEvents we know that a #Standby means a GO is coming. #WearAMask so my industry can return. #WeMakeEvents #RedAlert #ShowUsYourScripts #stagemanager #yearofthestagemanager
I need to add #viable and #ArtsAreViable next time, which are popular hashtags with my British friends right now.
You can find my versions on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook.
