I feel like I am about to begin a long series of questions of "What would you perfer?" as I prepare for a huge explosion in the numbr of people I will be hiring for next season. (I am staring at the th calendar matrix now, and my jaw, is a little slack.)
Okay, question number one.
How would you, as a SM, be perfer to be contract for a show with a possible 1-week or 2-week extension. As the person hiring, I would want to the contract to extend covering the entire proposed length of the run, and then just post a closing a notice. But, I have come to realize I look at things a different way.
Would you rather a contract be to the closing day or the closing day with the possible extensions included? How have you been contract previously? Pros? Cons? (This would be both a LORT B+, non-seasonal, rep contract - for those of you interested in the details.) I know that I will also be seeking input from Equity as well, but I wanted to hear from other SMs.
Let me know. (Again there will be a bunch).
