Spent all weekend working on my production book. This show has So Many Scenes for such a short show.
Thank you, five.: How to: Flip up/out pages in your blocking script!
Currently I am working at the Orlando Repertory Theatre as the assistant stage manager for their summer youth academy production of Hairspray. It’s a cast of 64 kids who can “sing their faces off”, to quote our director in a recent production meeting. Obviously, Hairspray is a show in which the…

Okay…I just need to state…
I made this calendar last night at Rehearsal…and it is BY FAR the most amazing calendar I have ever done. I just needed to share it with the world. Because I’m such an anal person when it comes to theatre and paperwork…so the fact that I can actually be proud and confident of a piece is really kind of cool!!
My stage manager kit :)
So, everyone else is posting kit pictures (tis the season) so I thought I would join in. This is my new stage manager’s kit. It’s not as huge and epic as some, but I needed something that wouldn’t be crazy to carry in the NY subway. The bag is actual a craft tote from AC Moore, about the size of a small duffel, and I can fit everything I need!
It contains:
-pencils, pens, highlighters, erasers, white out, sharpies
-tabs, post-its, elastics, paperclips, binder clips, tacks
-scotch tape, gaff tape, spike tape, electrical tape, glue stick
-44 piece tool set
-first aid kit, tissues, hand sanitizer, advil
-stapler, staples, scissors
and more! (once I get stuff from my dorm added in…ie.// coffee supplies, sewing kit, cough drops, ruler, hole punch and so on)

To show you my process, how I set things up, and hear what you have to say about it or if you have suggestions. Here we go!
The front of the book. I usually keep my legal pad in the front pockets, where the page it’s open to is the one with my most recent notes. Below that are my sticky tabs,…
You know how I know I’m crazy?
I’ve started paperwork for a show that doesn’t start rehearsals for six months.
So here is what I have of my actor plot thus far. Do you think I’m headed in the right direction? I found a great template on the forum I posted about before and manipulated it how I liked and got this as the result. Thoughts?
