ABSTRACT

When working in the round, find a way to coordinate a stage crew of 15 in making scene shifts, striking an average of five props and 11 set pieces and setting as manyin 30 seconds-in the dark-every 12 minutes-for 1 hour and 35 minutes-for a total of 14 shifts. This is the type of logistical problem that can make stage managers lose sleep and eat aspirins.
