Tips from past Producers
If you have the capability, projections really add to setting the scenes. Work with your Claque on walking with confidence. We watched a lot of runway models and did some runway challenges of our own. Get your cast off book sooner rather than later to work on the timing of three + person scenes. Bring in some people to be a test audience as you get closer to the performance.
