Also called: Master run sheet, Show run sheet.

A run sheet is the backstage document listing everything that has to happen during a performance, in order: scene changes, prop hand-offs, quick changes, fly cues, who does each and where. The master run sheet covers the whole crew; each track has its own page listing only that person's duties.

In CueCall

Run Sheets under the Reports tab are authored per show: duties assigned to crew tracks, printed as the Running List, the Preset List and the Master Run Sheet, with each crew member's page on its own.

Features

Reports & Exports — Excel and PDF exports of characters, mic plots, slideshows and show reports, for the people who still want paper in the room.
Tech Cues — Light, sound, deck and other cues recorded against scenes, with a master cue view and filtering by type.
