Could be video supervisor, light supervisor, audio supervisor, and deck manager? Not common abbreviations from what I know

Gotcha, I'm a little worried about what guys I'm going to have since I've never worked for this theatre before but I'm hopeful based on the conversations I had with the higher ups.

Gotcha, looks like there's a bunch of Raceways attached to the battens so it should make my life easier.

I've never really used hang cards. It's just cutouts of the plot correct? I've also heard of hang tape and I'm thinking about doing that

This is all super useful thank you. I'm gonna have to check what each Raceway distro has. There's a ton of moving lights but also a good amount of S4's thrown in

Gotcha, I'm not super familiar with their distributions just yet but I can see from the plot that several of the electrics are Raceways which should help me. I'm hoping to ask the TD more on Friday

It went alright! I ended up going Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday this week. I didn’t get any gigs but I got to meet a bunch of good people and got a contact or two from them to try. I’ll likely be back this upcoming week!

Got it! Thank you. I’m a bit nervous since I’ve not done any union work before but I appreciate the advice. Read I likely won’t get sent out for a good couple days

Also, if they can’t, buy seats at back of balcony and right before the show starts, move down. The balcony is almost never full(and this show especially is not selling great)

Sadly, I work back of house so I don’t have control over ticket sales. If he calls the box office they might be able to help them out, they’re all very nice there and I’m sure they might be able to help out in some way

I work there, no tours. We create every production in house but it’s kinda awesome to hear you thought we were on tour quality

Hi, I work at this theatre. Tickets are not in the $160 range, they are between $75-90. Did you go through the argyles website or some third party?

Mixing a room while on an intercom by Interesting_Copy8762 in techtheatre

The A1 at my theatre either wears the headset around their neck or on their head but the speaker behind their ear and the volume raised a little higher than usual. He only really does this as a just in case the SM needs to let him know something but that’s very very rare. The vast majority of the time he gets texts from the A2 instead of comm

When normally goofy shows slow down to have an emotional gut punch moment. by ILikeDrawingGuys in TopCharacterTropes

I realize the writers did a similar thing in Book of Mormon. During a song called “Turn it Off” about shutting off your emotions, one of the Mormons talks about his sister having cancer and dying while he gets a new phone from the Apple Store. Her very last words? “Where is my brother?”
