The New StageAgent Is Live—Faster, Smarter, and Packed with New Features

Hi everyone—I’m Jason, the founder of StageAgent.

When I started StageAgent over 15 years ago, it was because I believed performers should have easier access to the information they need—without always having to spend hours reading full scripts or scouring obscure websites. I wanted to create a place where actors, educators, and fans could come together to learn about theatre quickly, deeply, and with confidence.

Today, I’m thrilled to announce the most significant update in StageAgent’s history.

This isn’t just a redesign—it’s a complete rebuild, based on your feedback and driven by our shared passion for theatre. Whether you’re preparing for an audition, teaching a class, producing a show, or simply browsing out of curiosity, this new StageAgent is for you.

Why the Rebuild?

As traffic to StageAgent.com grew to millions of pageviews per year, our old technology started to buckle. The site slowed down, and performance issues crept in. At the same time, we were hearing clear messages from our users:

“Make it faster.”
“Make it easier to search.”
“Help me find auditions.”
“I want more resources for my classroom.”

We took that feedback seriously. And now, thanks to a completely overhauled tech stack and a reimagined user experience, StageAgent is faster, more powerful, and better organized than ever before.

StageAgent’s new unified search makes it easier than ever to explore shows, characters, monologues, and more.
