  1. October 10 is International Stage Management Day but we should appreciate these overworked and often hardly noticed crew that help enable our productions to even happen!

    (Also we could use more stage managers for more of our shows. Just saying. 🤣 )

  6. For context, depending on the scale of the show and whether I’m calling all departments or just driving a single one, I’ll use between four and ten colours.

    There’s usually about
    20 scenes
    40 songs / playoffs
    500 cues
    300 standbys
    10 notes to self
    6 don’t fuck this up
    4 keys / colour codes

    Photos below for context - this is a partially marked up book from when we did Shrek in 2019, which I called but also remembered to photograph 😂 (for once)

  13. In kinda fun things though - I’ve just printed my layouts onto my book, rather than hand ruling 275 pages

    The next step is inserting tiny set plans times a billion, but there’s an updated version coming tomorrow so I’m not doing it today!!

    Still tossing up whether I print them or stick em on top, I’m leaning towards the later and just adding layers as major revisions happen

  19. Version one was more like version one A, mostly coz I spilled coffee on a partially completed one and started again with some tweaks.

    Version two includes some more references within the stage house, to give more context to the largest set pieces. And many more notes for clarity (so many omg)

  22. One of the things that has kept me going on this venue build has been running a Community Techs and a Teen Techs programme.

    Open to anyone that wants to come, we’ve gone right from #Theatre basics - starting with #VenueHistory, moving through #Lighting, then #Sound.

    This month I’m teaching the teen techs about #StageManagement - which is one of my favourite subjects to teach as being a #DSM and #CSM for musicals is one of my happy places.

  26. It’s wild how my brain works in two modes during tech week: Before work it’s “Ugggggh I have to go to work” then at work it’s “YEAH THIS IS AWESOME” and there’s really no in-between. #StageManagement

  30. from the perspective of #stagemanagement, #copyright is a cost. There's basically no upside - it's all a cost and friction that has to be navigated. Like a force of nature.

    #creativecommons and public domain (ie shakespear) plays *should* consequently be cheaper and more accessible/profitable.
