Okay, silence on social media means a little more than just “spending time with family”. It also means I’ve checked the analytics and seen that only a dozen or so folks see each post, so what’s really the point? There are lots of updates, but I’ve started putting them into the monthly newsletter.

Silence on social media only means I've been spending more time with my kids and less time doing "admin". A plethora of posts about recent upgrades are coming...

#FAQ Can I enter conflicts manually?

No, and why would you even want to? This is the rant... it's harder for you (director) + deprives your cast of tools they 💓

Taking attendance? When you're ready to start rehearsal, use the SET ABSENTEES to automatically mark performers without a status as absent.

#FAQ Can I enter conflicts manually?

Short answer: No.

Explanatory answer: b/c that's counter-productive to taking the burden off you (directors).
