Logbook for Musical Theatre Choreography
5th Dec: Making minutes for first Production Meeting discussing general things such as how many dance numbers will be in the show, what technical teams are needed for the show (fly teams/ AV op). Backing tracks need to be sent to the PM and budget still needs to be confirmed.
12th Dec: Making minutes for Production Meeting.Budget still needs to be confirmed. Fly teams have been organised, ground plan has changed slightly but we were already able to change it in the theatre. Some AV still needs to be sent to the production team. DSM will know for sure what dances are in the show after we come back from holidays.
9th Jan: Making minutes for final Production Meeting. All blocking done apart from one dance number. Still waiting on AV from the choreographers. Budget finalised, time of show approx. 55 mins.
14th Jan: Get in. LX/SND/AV focus + plot. Making sure everything is running as smoothly as possible and everyone happy. LX plot took a lot longer than planned but that was down to the choreographers not knowing what they really wanted. Once we got to sound plot, speaker playing up.
15th Jan: Tech, Dress and Shows. Tech wasn’t great, Dress was a little better but Shows were great. (The worse the Tech/Dress, the better the show?)
