Neen Rock Tribute

NEEN ROCK

Props Designer & More!

Neen designed and constructed costumes, sets and props for numerous shows starting in the later years of the Heritage Ensemble and continuing through the AFT years. She served as Northern Sky’s production stage manager for their summer and fall seasons since that position was created through 2020. Neen worked at Northern Sky for over thirty years, and her contributions to the company as a designer, stage manager, mentor, and beloved friend were too numerous and far-reaching to write in one paragraph. Her extensive credits designing props for dozens of Northern Sky shows include Loose Lips Sink Ships, Packer Fans from Outer Space, Muskie Love, Victory Farm, The Bachelors, Dairy Heirs, We Like It Where?, and Dad’s Season Tickets. In addition to her Northern Sky family, Neen had an extensive network of colleagues and friends in Madison, where she grew up. She worked at many venues there, including Children’s Theater of Madison, Madison Ballet, Madison Opera, and the Overture Center. She was a proud member of the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees, IATSE Local 251, and Actors’ Equity Association.

As we continue to grieve Neen Rock, the backbone and heartbeat of Northern Sky, we have found it healing to look back at photos and video that we are lucky to have in our collection. To hear her voice, see her face, and experience her infectious laugh is a joy and a balm. We hope you take some comfort in our tributes found here: https://northernskytheater.com/neen-rock/ If you would like, you can leave your own memory or photograph.
