About

I’m Martin Manolesi, a stage and event professional with hands-on experience in international live events, large-scale ceremonies, and contemporary exhibitions. I support stage management operations from backstage to stage floor, coordinating cues, scene changes, cast movement, and on-site logistics while collaborating closely with production and technical teams.

I also bring strong communication and design skills to the events space—creating presentation and event materials, supporting visitor-facing programs, and assisting with marketing and recruitment outreach. Fluent in Italian and English with experience working across Europe, I enjoy turning complex run-of-show requirements into smooth, well-coordinated experiences for performers, partners, and audiences.
