Mac, thanks for the advice. I did hand out assignments and give responsibility lectures, but never tried "hide the prop" trick. Problem is, about 9 pm when the show is getting done, it's really obvious when the SM is combing the grass in the dark looking for something.
I'd call this a semi-pro gig. Everyone's getting paid, but not enough to really make it worth their while (especially me considering gas, wear and tear on my car's interior, and weekly costs on disposable props!)
Thankfully, I get my check today and know to steer clear of this company (and a few actors) in the future.
On a happier note, there are three people I really want to work with and a couple actors I wouldn't actively discourage a director from casting (If asked my opinion). Putting it in perspective, I'm only frustrated with about half the cast. Hey it could be worse, but it's over!
