The Hardline / AEA breaks during run throughs?

« on: Sep 23, 2018, 01:41 pm »

Im working with a director who thinks that we don't have to take breaks during run throughs in rehearsal. We are on a SPT 3 contract. I cant find any rule that says that. Our show runs an hour 45 with no intermission and we have AEA actors who never leave the stage. We arent in tech yet so these aren't dress rehearsal runs.
Does anyone know if there is a rule that allows us to not take breaks during runs?

Im a non AEA Stage manager working on an AEA show. I cant seem to find the document library on the AEA website to download the paperwork I need for the actors (and for me)

Does anyone know where to find the deputy packet and other documents?

Can you also walk me through what paperwork I need to print out/ submit?

Stage Management: Plays & Musicals / SCHEDULE: rehearsal scene breakdown how to

« on: Aug 14, 2018, 07:17 pm »

Hi I'm a fairly new SM here. The props designer on the show I'm working on just asked me for a rehearsal scene breakdown. I've made a character scene breakdown and have a rehearsal schedule but she is wanting to know what scenes we will be working on when. How does one go about creating that? Is that something the director and I would create together?
