Play Logistics
|
Things That Should Simplify Your Life |
Music |
All instruments played onstage by actors, eliminating orchestra logistics. |
 |
Set |
Single-Set production, no backstage crew required during performance. |
Cast |
7-member cast (3 men, 3 women, 1 girl) |
Costumes |
There are many costume changes, but much of the clothing should be available at thrift shops or vintage clothing stores. |
|
Other things |
Lighting |
Lighting is important, especially the ability to widen spots, dim very gradually, etc., as the lighting helps change focus and tone throughout the play. Automation is recommended in addition to a live operator. |
Sound |
In larger venues, each actor and each musical instrument should have an individual pickup, which will have to be monitored carefully by the sound engineer. Automation is recommended in addition to a live operator. |
Whatever else you get out of our pages, I hope you come away with some great ideas for "sharing the joy."
And please stay in touch!
