Your calling script, reimagined.

Everything you need to run a show, all in one place. Built by people who make theater, designed for the way shows really run.

Annotate

Place cues and notes with one click.

Drop annotations right onto your script in your own layer. Number them automatically, nudge them as the show evolves, and have an up-to-date list of your cues with the click of a button.

  • Control edit permissions layer by layer
  • Customize the script's look for every user
  • Easily search your cues, notes and script text

Collaborate live

Your whole team's work in one living document.

Invite designers, stage managers, associates, and operators. The moment you place or move a cue, everyone sees it on any device, whether they are in the room or across the country.

  • Real-time sync across every device
  • Swap in revised pages without losing your cues
  • Invite by email, with no installs or downloads

Stay organized

Every show in one place.

Pin current projects, find recent ones at a glance, and jump back into any script, anytime.

  • See and accept project invites
  • Come back years later to remount a show
  • View and print old shows, even if your subscription has lapsed

Add cues with ease

Drop cues onto the script, adjust their look and placement, automatically number them, and export a complete list with just a few clicks.

Paperless and portable

Your entire project lives in the cloud and runs right in your browser, so you can open it on any device and revise on the fly while cutting printing by hundreds—or even thousands—of pages per project.

Layers for every department

Your cues and notes live in your own layer, editable only by the people you allow. Show or hide anyone else's work while the whole team works in parallel.

Share in a click

Invite as many team members as you like. Users join instantly with no software installs and no file shuffling, and collaborators can view shared projects for free, whether or not they have a subscription.

Print and export when you need it

Going old-school for tech? Export a clean, correctly-sized PDF of your marked script for any page size, ready for the binder. You can also export cue lists and ETC Eos cue files with the click of a button.

Save a revision history

Save a version of your project at any point. Project creators can lock any one of them to prevent changes during a performance or to serve as a permanent archive.
