Teddy LyngaasProducer & Show Caller

House to half. Eighteen years of general sessions, trade shows and festivals, called from the headset. The room only gets one take.

From the desk

Two monitors, a run of show, and a headset. Everything the room sees was called from a table at the back of it, one cue at a time.

150-Year Anniversary

A 24-hour load-in, a high-energy fashion show, and Blue Man Group headlining. All of it inside one day, for a century and a half of legacy.

Doors at seven

Eight hundred seats, a ribbon ceiling and an hour of walk-in music. By the time anyone sits down the show has already been running for two days.

What

I call shows. General sessions, trade shows, festivals, activations. Eighteen years on a headset making sure the thing that was supposed to happen happens, on time, in front of everybody.

Who hires me

Production companies. Meeting planners. Creative agencies. I show up as producer, stage manager, show caller or breakout lead, whatever the gap is. Plug and play. Anywhere.

A freelance producer and show caller, working out of Milwaukee, on site wherever the show is.

General session, 150-year anniversary

About

Eighteen years of live events. General sessions, trade shows, brand activations, festivals. Production companies and agencies bring me in to run the room, and I show up as whatever the room is missing: producer, stage manager, show caller, breakout lead.

The job is mostly preparation, then a few hours where preparation is the only thing standing between a company and eight hundred people watching nothing happen.

Every channel is a room I've run. The faders are set where they usually sit: general sessions loudest, virtual quietest but never off. Production companies, meeting planners and agencies bring me in to hold the mix together.
