Summary: Everything you ever needed to know
Comment: Theatre Producers! This is an intriguing collection of forms that suit a number of purposes. Almost all of the forms are perfect for making sure that information about productions is recorded thoroughly and usefully, reported clearly, and archived in a meaningful way. Some of the forms may not be exactly what you need, but just staring at one that's close can remind you of how to adapt it to what you need. Cast lists, make-up charts, costume fitting charts, lighting patch charts, fly schedules, cue sheets - often laid out just as they need to be. And they serve as great check lists to tell you if you've thought of everything. Paul has!
A few of the forms are sly digs at people who record, report, and archive too much. Take for exaple, the pencil sharpening log, which, like a telephone log, tells the manager who is doing the most work, by who has to sharpen the most. Or does it?
Every theatre should have one for the production crew to browse through. Add this book to your purchasing form before it's too late!!

Summary: Better Than Reinventing the Wheel, or the Form in this case!
Comment: This is a very useful selection of forms required, backstage, on the road, in the shop, and in the office. All those misc forms you need are here. Petty Cash, Labor Contract, Call list, Lighting Paper work, Shop Orders, Sound notes, Theatre specs. and on and on. By the same author who brought us "Backstage Handbook an Illustrated Almanac of Technical Information", Paul Carter. It even includes a form for pencil sharpening. Another of those collection of forms, but specific to entertainment and theatre. It can save you hours of creating your own, or at least point you in the right direction. It would be great if the book included a diskette with templates for MS Word, Wordperfect, or MS Works
