[QUOTE="Per SÃ¸vik, post: 89556, member: 1285"] Re: F*** off, this is a soundcheck not a bleedin' rehearsal! Geez, we're sooo opposite ends of the scale, where you have a week for tech, we have a couple of hours at most, where you have a week of venue rehersals we have a single run through. "Production" and "Managment" are words that are too big for my world, even "Theater" is an ambitious word for most of the venues ;)~;-)~:wink: Working on "Noway" means no money, no time, no staff, no volunteers. A "Noway" show happens not because of what is available, but despite of everything that is not. Fortunately, when I or those I provide a service for screw up, we don't get slaughtered in the entertainment section of New York Times :uhoh: I definitely get your point about having a stage manager, but I imagine such a job is too demanding to expect to find a suitable candidate among the parents and (non existing) volunteers that might be available for productions at this level (amateur school kids directed and produced by their singing teacher/acting teacher) My only reward is that I get to hear performances like this: [URL]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3If9zKJNwA&feature=share[/URL] [/QUOTE]
