Have the very best story from today. This past weekend the director freaked out when he realized there wasn't a paper tech scheduled, he didn't think we could possible tech the show without one, etc, minor hysterics, and so on. I got in touch with the light designer and scheduled a paper tech for this am from 9:30-12:30. I watched the director write it in his calendar, and it was in the rehearsal minutes last night. At 9:30 this morning the light designer and I were there, no director. We figured he was running late and just started. Then we realized he had likely forgotten but were on a roll so we kept going. We got all 409 light cues in my book in 3 hours and 15 minutes. The director walked into rehearsal at 1:31 (scheduled to start at 1:30) and I asked him about paper tech. His response “was I supposed to be at that?”

I am grateful for ibuprofen. (2000 mg a day is fine, right?)
And sleep. Which I'm going to go and do now.

zeebeemay Grrr. That last comment was from me. Silly directors.
beeker121 No he is not new, this is out Artistic Director who needs a paper tech, 'I've been having paper techs for 40 years that's how we do it'. Until he forgets apparently.
