hopes 237 Report post Posted October 15, 2011 Ah, thank you~!! Yeah, I'm trying to research all that... XD I know the stage directions and such, but... Better to be safe than sorry. And I've done drama since 1st grade, so I know how everything works, but this is my first time being stage manager. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I found my book but if u've been doing this since 1st grade, than i dont think i can be much help for u xD the book has stage directions and terms, so if u need help refreshing ur memory, than jus ask. plus a bunch of extra stuff like how to do rehearsals and wat not in this book xD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
