Prepare an audition

You are seeing actors for a part: keep track of the leads, and print the sides.

1. Check the scenes' cast

The sides use the scenes where the character is cast. In Write, for each scene: inspector › Characters › "Extract from the text", then tick the non-speaking parts.

2. Note the leads

1. Rail › Cast › the character.
2. One casting lead per person: name, contact, agent, audition notes.

3. Print the sides

1. Same page › Sides.
2. Tick "Highlight their lines".
3. Print: cover page, then one scene per page, lines highlighted.

4. Choose the actor

After the auditions, choose the cast actor: they are shown with the part, in the Cast list.
