Ribbons of War goes into tech on Tuesday and I'm scared in an entirely new way.
Normally, I'm worried about all the things that are MY responsibility (which is a lot when you're a stage manager) and I make lists and fret and agonize. This time though, I get to worry about EVERYTHING that is EVERYONE's responsibility. It's freeing and horrifying.
As a production manager, I really don't DO much during tech. I'll run the notes session after each rehearsal and I'll support my SM throughout but other than that? I have a feeling I'll just sit and watch.
The scary part is tomorrow - Monday - load in. This is when I get to orchestrate a beautiful chaos that is everything arriving all in one day. I've made a schedule, rented a van, set aside time to go to the space today and clean but I still have a stone in the pit of my stomach.
I don't think it will go away until we're all good and closed.
