TimeLine Theatre Company announced today that Maggie Fullilove-Nugent has joined the company as their new Production Manager.

Fullilove-Nugent, a native Chicagoan, has acted as production manager and designer with many Chicago theater organizations including The Goodman, The Neo-Futurists, Akvavit and The Hypocrites, where she was recently Jeff-nominated for her lighting of ENDGAME. She is also a founding member and resident designer of The Ruffians, recently known for their holiday hit BURNING BLUEBEARD. Before taking on her new role at TimeLine Theatre, Fullilove-Nugent taught technical theatre at North Park University, where she was also a resident designer and the production manager, and held the role of Company Manager for Barrel of Monkeys since 2008.

Fullilove-Nugent replaces Josephine Kearns, who is stepping aside to focus on other projects after serving as Production Manager at TimeLine since 2010 and in a full-time capacity since 2013.

“While it’s bittersweet to lose Josie, who has been a part of the TimeLine family for many years, we are very pleased to welcome this wonderfully accomplished and passionate new member to our team,” said Artistic Director PJ Powers. “Maggie’s years of experience as a production manager, master electrician, lighting designer and stage manager have positioned her to excel at TimeLine. And her infectious warmth and enthusiasm is a great addition to our workplace.”

Fullilove-Nugent joins a full-time team of 10 that includes Artistic Director PJ Powers, Managing Director Elizabeth K. Auman, Associate Artistic Director Nick Bowling, Director of Marketing and Communications Lara Goetsch, Director of the Living History Education Program Juliet Hart, Development Assistant Juliet Mazer-Schmidt, General Manager Dan McArdle, Audience Services Manager Andi Sharavsky and Development Manager Lydia P.
