Calls cues in real time during the show, coordinating lighting changes, video transitions, audio playback, and stage blocking on a unified call — from a dedicated calling position with multiview confidence monitors, a show flow rundown, and intercom to all department heads.
The show caller (or production caller) calls cues in real time during the show, coordinating lighting changes, video transitions, audio playback, and stage blocking on a unified call. On corporate productions, this is done from a dedicated calling position with multiview confidence monitors, a show flow rundown, and intercom to all department heads.
Show callers work from a cue sheet aligned to the script or rundown, and are the live link between the production manager's vision and the technical crew executing it. They work closely with the stage manager on talent blocking, speaker transitions, and any unscripted adjustments during the run. Good show calling requires deep familiarity with the show flow and fast, precise communication under pressure.
