Post-Tech Week Notes Session
After each tech rehearsal, hold a notes session with the cast and crew to discuss what went well and what needs improvement. Preparation involves taking detailed notes during rehearsals, organizing them by departments, and facilitating a constructive feedback session.
Safety Briefing
Conduct a safety briefing for the cast and crew, focusing on the specific elements and potential hazards of the production. Prepare through identifying risks, creating emergency procedures, and reinforcing protocol adherence.
Finalizing the Cue Sheet
Compile all lighting, sound, and scene change cues into a comprehensive cue sheet. Preparation involves meticulous collaboration with the directors and technical teams to ensure accuracy and efficiency during the show.
Technical Rehearsals Coordination
Oversee the smooth operation of technical rehearsals, ensuring all technical elements are integrated with the actors' performances. Prepare by scheduling adequate time for each department, communicating specific needs to all parties, and addressing issues promptly.
Prop Management
Ensure all props are in their proper locations before and after rehearsals and performances. Preparation involves creating a prop list, a preset checklist, and rehearsing prop handoffs with the actors and crew.
Cue-to-Cue Rehearsal
A cue-to-cue rehearsal focuses on the technical aspects of the show, skipping non-technical parts. Prepare by making sure the cue sheet is up-to-date, the tech crew is briefed, and the actors are ready to perform key actions for cue timing.
Dress Rehearsals Supervision
Manage dress rehearsals to mimic live performances with full costumes, makeup, and tech. Prepare by synchronizing technical and performance elements, running full sequences without stops, and troubleshooting on the fly.
Costume Check
Confirm that all costumes are ready for the actors, fitting correctly, and in good repair. Preparation entails coordinating with the costume department, scheduling fittings, and tracking changes and repairs.
Setting Stage Blocking
Finalize the placement and movement of actors and set pieces on stage. This involves working with the director and cast to ensure that the blocking is clear and practical on the actual set and making any necessary adjustments.
Communication Systems Setup
Check that the communication systems, like headsets and intercoms, are functioning properly for the crew and cast to communicate during tech rehearsals and performances. Prepare by testing all equipment, establishing communication protocols, and training the team on proper usage.
