Employment / Stepping In

« on: Apr 09, 2008, 11:58 am »

I'm stepping in for the PSM on a show to call the last 2 weeks of the run.
It's at a good theater, so I want to put it on my resume, but I'm unsure how to list my position and am interested to hear how you list it on your resume.

Substitue PSM?
Calling PSM?
Temporary PSM?
Stepping in PSM?  Now that sounds awkward!

Thanks!

The Hardline / SPT 10 Question

« on: Oct 25, 2007, 02:21 pm »

So the background:
One of our actors in a 4 person play has been out the past 3 days with a strained back.  2 of the other 4 actors have not been called for 2 days this week.  The director wants to rehearse for 3 hours on Saturday, our scheduled day off. 

I know if I come in I get 2/6ths of my weekly salary if I come in (which I don't want to, we'd planned to go pumpikin picking for my birthday that day, but that's another story), but what about the only actor who hasn't had a day off yet this week, and won't get another one till the following Saturday?  If he agrees to come in, I would think he gets paid overtime, but does he get 2/6ths as well?

And what about the actor who's been out?  Yeah he's had 3 days off, but aren't they technically sick days?

I have a call into equity on this, but I was wondering if anyone else had some thoughts.
