Stagecraft is very excited to welcome Eric McAfee into the role of Director of Technical Design.

He is a member of the inaugural ETCP Rigger-Theatre Rigging class of 2005 and is recognized as a Subject Matter Expert by ESTA.
McAfee has worked for several prominent companies in our industry including 13 years at JR Clancy, where he served as the Dealer Project Manager, overseeing the submittal process, field checks, and shipments to dealers’ jobsites. He was also involved with Technical Sales working with architects and consultants on rigging systems budgeting and design.
After JR Clancy, he joined the architectural firm of Westlake Reed Leskosky, as a Theatre Specialist designing theater rigging and lighting systems. McAfee’s next chapter brought him to InterAmerica Stage, where he served as a project manager, rigging inspector, and the Director of Safety before coming to Stagecraft.
