Technical Instructions:

All pit players are responsible for:

  • Wired earphones or headphones. We operate on in ear monitors (IEMs), and each player needs their own set of earphones. Bluetooth headphones will NOT work for this application. We’ll be doing most of the show to a click, so being able to hear playback is critical.

    • You’ll each have your own mixer to control your IEM mix (new for this year). Be sure you balance your mix appropriately so you can always clearly hear click and MD instructions.

  • Please keep track of your books, which includes annotating your music as required.
