Pageant is one of the funniest shows I have ever worked on. It is also a noteworthy show in this portfolio because it used entirely pre-recorded music. For this production, musicians were recorded before rehearsals began and the sound files were played back in performance using Q Manager software. So every pickup and playoff and every song was initiated by the stage manager. You can look over the detailed cue sheet for this production by clicking on the link below. |
