Rehearsal & Meeting Reports

Rehearsal Reports

The function of the rehearsal report is to provide a breakdown of what was worked in rehearsal, rehearsal minutes, tardies and absences (with "exc" for excused or "uex" for unexcused), and most importantly, production notes for the design crew. Since the production team is not in rehearsals, it is extremely important that the RR goes out every night so that they receive any updates from the director on things that will be needed.

I like to put an initials column so that designers can initial to show they have seen the report. I also take a lot of notes for myself under Stage Management; that helps me collect everyone in one place for my own notes, but it also shows that I am using the report just as much as any of them.

Meeting Reports

During production meetings, you will take meeting reports of all the major things discussed in the meeting, minutes, etc. During parent meetings, you should also make a meeting report that lists all the info in the meeting and the links for anyone who missed it. Those should then be posted on BAND.
