The relationship between the producer and the showcaller is critical for the successful delivery of a show.

A showcaller relies entirely on the information delivered to them by the producer. You can only call what you know.

One of the things that makes life difficult when showcalling is finding a way to integrate ever changing information into a showbook in a way that makes it possible to convey the cues in a way that all the departments understand what is coming up.

The course emphasises the importance of providing this information to the showcaller in a way that is easy to assimilate .

There is one short section on Virtual Showcalling. Iam creating a new course to cover this in more detail.
