[SML] Production calendar question

[Kristi R-C]

Please encourage your new head of theater to come into the 21st century where we’re now using “er” as the building or place where movies are shown and “re” as the art form. It helps us to determine which is which just like lectern and podium. 
Love, Mom.

Subject: [SML] Production calendar question

Howdy ‘Listers,

Either our new Head of Theater, (who insists that we spell theater with an ”ER” EVERYWHERE!!!), or our new Head of Arts or even possibly our continuing Dance teachers REEEEEAALY want me to start doing a production calendar of some sort this year. (Not completely sure who, not that it matters…) I’ve always known what I’ll be working on for the next week or so but never planned out in detail weeks in advance. I’m hoping they might be satisfied with something that shows “tape ground plan in rehearsal space”, “load in platforming” and “hang lights”, "focus lights”. That kind of thing. I doubt anyone will bother to look at it once it’s created but if it gives them some peace of mind, I’ll be happy with that.

Anyway, I’ve never done a published calendar since I’m a "Tech Department of Everything except costumes". Anyone have any thoughts or suggestions on a nice clean way to come up with something that I can prep, without spending in inordinate amount of time or getting a graduate degree in Gantt charts?

Thanks,

Bill Potter
