ABSTRACT
The mixer has to be keenly aware of the schedule for the load-in. The typical Broadway load-in is three weeks. Usually the work days are Monday through Friday from 8 am until 5 pm. Even though that seems like a long time, Broadway shows are huge and get more complicated every year, and time slips away very quickly. On Broadway, it uses Teamsters to load and unload trucks. Teamsters are a union of workers who load and unload trucks and containers. This union is not specific to the entertainment industry. Dry tech is the day when carpenters and automation are going to work through the cues in the show. The carpentry department has installed a platform for the conductor. The electrics department will run power in for the music stand lights so they can control them from the light board.
