Episode 1: Two-Step

Welcome to the first episode of Standing By, a podcast where I, Alex Fernandes, try to have interesting chats with the people who work backstage in the theatre industry. In this episode I talk to Carly Hook and Karl Oskar Sørdal, Stage Manager and Production Manager for Richard Alston Dance Company. Thanks to both of them for letting me ruin their work breaks by recording them while I asked daft questions. Read the explanations below if you need some context for some of what was said: MIDI is a technical protocol that allows a variety of electronic devices to communicate with each other. In this context, RADC occasionally use MIDI to trigger lighting cues directly from specific moments in the soundtrack of their pieces. Richard and Martin (mentioned a few times) are Richard Alston and Martin Lawrance, the Artistic and Rehearsal Directors of RADC. DSM stands for Deputy Stage Manager. "Beginners" is typically used to describe the moment where the first performers are called to the wings or the stage, typically 5 minutes before the piece is to start. If you like the track used at the intro and outro, you can find Falcon Punch!'s music here: https://falconpunch.bandcamp.com/
