Stage manager reports for A Trip to Japan
Title (Dublin Core)
Stage manager's reports for A Trip to Japan
Description (Dublin Core)
In this particular report, the stage manager is notating the arrival times of actors and if they need extra pay for their time. In modern times, the stage manager keeps track of how many hours their team and the actors work. Because the actors and the stage managers are all part of the same union, the hours that they’re working vary from contract to contract. So it’s important that someone is keeping track of all of those elements. In this case, the stage manager is noting what time actors arrive at rehearsal. Lateness will potentially affect how they’re paid.
