Tools of the Trade / Re: [FAQ] Electronic Prompt Copies

I started using tabs to create calling scripts. I set a right alignment tab for the edge of the page, then when I need to mark a cue, I underline from the cue line to the right tab. If I need to include a note, I can type that in the space between the text and cue. I find it to be particularly seamless since I can create the formatting using keystrokes without accessing other elements. It also transitions well between Word and Pages, which is an added plus. For more precision, I sometimes add a "shapes" line to mark exactly where I want to call something. That can be a bit more time consuming, so sometimes I will add those in after the script is a bit more set.
You can play around with what is best for you as far as bold text/italic text/underlined text so that you're paying attention to the right things at the right moment. If there is something I particularly need to highlight, text boxes are always an option. And all of this functions quite well for blocking scripts, too.
In the attachment you can see a sample of what a script might look like, as well as where I placed the tabs in the ruler at the top.

Students and Novice Stage Managers / Interning on Broadway?
« on: Sep 05, 2010, 12:18 am »
Hello all,
My name is Katie and I'm a stage management student at NYU and I am eagerly searching for an internship that focuses on stage management. So far I've only found ones at 2nd stage and Manhattan Theatre Club and am wondering if there is any way to intern on broadway shows -- especially if I don't have any connections.
On a related note, what is the best way to go about getting observation/shadow opportunities?
Thank you for the advice, this is such a great site!

Hello all,
I am a student at NYU and therefore will be living in New York during the year and am wondering if there is any way to get an long-term internship with the SM team of a Broadway show? I learned about shadowing through this website, and took advantage of it and it was such a wonderful experience that I would love to be able too see a show being executed for more than just a single performance.
Any tips?
Thank you.
