Wow.. You guys doing your first? Anyway, here is a rough outline of one of ours, it does change from show to show and be advised, we pay directors, producers, choreographers, rehearsal pianists and show musicians.

royalties and rentals

Director

Producer

Choreographer

Music Director

Reahearsal Pianist

Orchestra

Publicity

Set Construction

Set Dresing

Costumes

Props

Hair

Makeup

Lights

Sound

Programs

Box Office

Intermission

Crew Food (during builds & Tech's we keep them from dispersing by feeding them!)

Misc.

Thats all I can recall at the moment, but I think its a fairly complete list for one of OUR shows...

Thank you for your help!! We've had a change in management/artistic directors/board/etc. and finding past records, plans, etc. is proving difficult! Your rough outline will help smooth our planning for this show. Again, thank you!!
