Hi, all.  I'd love some feedback on the House Management Report that is used in your venue(s).
What information does it include?
Is it a requirement to have one?  What are the benefits of having this document?
Thank you!

Stage Management: Plays & Musicals / SAFETY: 7 ft. Fall onto Crash Pad in Show

« on: Feb 02, 2012, 01:40 pm »

Hi, all.

Anyone have any advice on the following:

In an upcoming play, the artistic team would like an actor to fall roughly 7 feet onto a crash pad.  We currently have some in stock--are there rules about how we need to handle this at a university (the actor is a student)?

Things I'm considering: dimensions of crash pad... thickness, material... any other notes about the fall itself.  We'll have a stunt person involved.  Any thoughts or advice here would be appreciated though.  Thanks!
