Stage Management: Plays & Musicals / CALLING: Rail cues
« on: Jun 12, 2016, 03:03 pm »
Hi everyone!
Quick question. I'm working with rails for the first time and I'm not sure how to call them. I know you bring the rails in and take them out, so when you call the cues do you recommend saying stuff like "Standby Rail 5 In" and "Rail 5 Go", or do you think it's a waste of time to say if they're coming in or out? What have you found to be necessary when calling rails?
