Stage Management: Plays & Musicals / PROFESSIONALISM: PreProduction time
« on: Sep 11, 2007, 11:38 am »
I am usually hired well before the contract & official "preproduction" week. Typically, I am asked to perform tasks weeks in advance of the contract dates. Small tasks don't bother me much, as I like to be in the loop as the production ideas evolve. But how early and how much should one give before the paychecks start rolling in? I'd like to think 5 hrs/week is about the max for me until the contract starts. Does this seem reasonable?
