Thanks so much! We had our first meeting last night with (almost) the entire team -- I haven't been this excited to start in on a show in a long time. Your advice has definitely helped

Thanks so much to both of you! This is all really good and helpful information. Everything you've said is very similar to what I've imagined my duties would be like; but I feel much better asking and getting the advice than I would blindly walking into a rehearsal, thinking I know what I'm in for, and be completely thrown off my game.

Again, a thousand times thanks

Stage Management: Other / First time on a devised show

Hello all 

I am working on a devised show currently -- we're in pre production now... which is mostly just logistics, since there's not a script to go off of, obviously. This is the first time I have ever been a part of devised theatre and was wondering if any of you have advice or tips for going into the rehearsal process? If you have worked on a devised show, what sort of things did you do to prepare for rehearsals? Or while in rehearsals? I imagine that once the script is created, rehearsals become more similar to a standard theatre production... but what do I do until then??

Any advice or help at all is more than welcome.

Thank you all a thousand times!
