Rose Figueroa (she/her/hers) born and raised in South Florida is an accomplished Peruvian/Puerto Rican Stage Manager and Arts Administrator with a passion for developing and supporting new work.
As a new play advocate, she uses her skills to amplify the voices of emerging artists. Her human-centered practices in facilitating the development and artistic process have made her an asset in the South Florida community and the industry nationwide by creating an atmosphere that nurtures collaboration and the development of groundbreaking new works. Rose received her training from the University of North Carolina- Greensboro. Shortly after graduating, she served as the Assistant Stage Manager for two full seasons at the Maltz Jupiter Theater in Jupiter, FL, a Lort B+ theater before there was a pause from the pandemic in which Rose turned her attention to becoming a full-time staff member at the National New Play Network fully committing to her passion in supporting new work as an arts administrator. Rose additionally took on the role of the resident stage manager at Theatre Lab, a professional theatre company committed to developing and producing only new work in Boca Raton, FL. When Rose is not working on a production, she goes to the other theaters in her community to support the new work being developed or mentors early career stage managers at the university. Rose continues to freelance as a union stage for new work when available. If she's not in the theater, she's definitely at your local Trader Joe's grabbing groceries for her next great thing she can't wait to make or bake! Or on a plane somewhere- most likely to the family home in Peru.
Selected notable works include her role as Stage Manager for Theatre Lab’s productions of "Refuge," "Last Night in Inwood," "Overactive Letdown," "Everything is Super Great," "Ronia, the Robber's Daughter," "When She Had Wings," "Red Riding Hood," and "Dorothy's Dictionary." Rose served as the Assistant Stage Manager at the Maltz Jupiter Theatre for the following productions "Steel Magnolias," "Mamma Mia!," "West Side Story," "Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors," "Chicago," and "How To Succeed in Business Without Really Trying." Rose's talents have also graced the stage of Triad Stage for their original production of "Beautiful Star" as their Assistant Stage Manager. Rose also stage managed San Diego Rep's captivating reading of "The Cucuy Will Find You." which was a part of their Latinx New Play Festival. She is a proud member of the Actor’s Equity Association. In addition to her work as a stage manager, Rose is an emerging force in arts administration. Rose has previous experience as an operations associate for a recruiting firm in the arts sector with the goal of making a change within the field. She currently proudly holds the position of Administrative Manager for the renowned National New Play Network, a testament to her commitment to supporting new work in the theatrical playfield.
