Behind the Curtain

Made for people who live for the stage

Onstage Swag is a one-person shop built by a theater kid who never really grew up — and wouldn't have it any other way.

Hi, I'm Maddie.

I've been a theater person for as long as I can remember. My love for the stage started in middle school the moment I stepped into my first play rehearsal — and I've never really stepped off. From musicals to straight plays to the wild, glorious chaos of improv (which grabbed me in high school and hasn't let go), theater has shaped how I see the world, how I connect with people, and how I find joy.

In 2019, I got involved in community theater, and that community became something I treasure deeply. There's a kind of magic that happens when a group of people pour their hearts into a production together — the late-night rehearsals, the inside jokes, the post-show rush. If you know, you know.

Onstage Swag grew out of that love. I wanted to create a place where theater people — performers, directors, crew, stagehands, proud drama parents, and lifelong audience members — could find something that actually speaks their language.

Why it matters to me

When you shop at Onstage Swag, you're not buying from a faceless company. You're buying from someone who has stood in the wings waiting for their entrance, fumbled a line in front of a live audience, and felt the specific thrill of a scene that finally clicks in tech rehearsal.

Every item in this shop is designed with real theater people in mind — because I am one. I want everything here to feel like it was made for you, because honestly? It was.

Come find your people.

Browse the shop and find something that makes your theater-loving heart happy.
