Actor Packets & First Rehearsal | The (Almost) Complete Guide to Stage Management #10
Рет қаралды 4,728
Let's talk communication for stage managers! One of the ways how stage managers communicate is through a theater call board. This central hub of information is a great tool to use, so watch now to learn how to make a callboard as well as some of the documents that go on it!
NOTE: I know I skipped episode 9! Episode 9 will be about taping out a groundplan and will have to wait until it is safe to rehearse in-person again.

I just found your channel today and subscribed. Love it so far. Though I have lots of experience in the creative world I have never actually worked in theater. Thanks for the information.

I love the inclusion of the wallet card. Another bit of information that would be useful to actors is a fitting packet. If your costume Dept has a Standard Fitting Protocol sheet, it would be useful and helpful for both Actors and costumers to let Actors know what to expect and what’s expected of them prior to the fittings.

Fun fact: the new deputy election packet (which is soooooooooo poorly formatted) has some great info about how to conduct the election, but also explicitly says people on contracts who aren't yet full members can't be part of the election. I SUPER disagree and ignore this. But it's a thing that official Equity docs say. Hopefully we can fix that.

Oh good to know! That’s dumb. But I appreciate the info!!

@@HalfHourCall agreed! If you're on a contract you get full protection of the union including being represented by a deputy and should also have the right to be part of their election as well as all the other votes.
