Yes, you can manage #auditions and #conflicts and #rehearsals for free, but when you're ready to do more... you can.

📝 "Taking attendance is so much fun!" said no one ever. But at least now it's less tedious.

It would take each performer < 5 minutes to enter their own conflicts v. the director giving up a whole weekend trying to DIY.

🤯 If I was going to ask performers submit their own conflict calendar, the natural next step was a full audition form.

How Cast98 evolved to a do-it-all platform...
A director friend was ranting to me at a cast party that the software they paid for to make rehearsal scheduling easy actually made it harder. I started Cast98 months after that with the goal of doing the job correctly...

[Cast98 @cast98app]

I spoke to other directors in my community who ALL expected to spend hours putting conflicts into a spreadsheet before ever starting the rehearsal schedule. That was insane to me! It became clear the only way to ease that burden was to collect conflicts directly from performers.

🤔How many storage bins/closets/rooms/units does your theatre have? Maybe time to track inventory so you don't spend hours searching...

1. Sponsors get analytics about their ad
2. Screens remain off during the show
3. Parents can keep the one-pager for the scrapbook or fridge

The biggest reasons NOT to use a digital playbill:

1. Parents 💓 keepsakes
2. Glowing screens during a show
2. Sponsors hate em

The best solution is a hybrid: Print a one-pager w/ cast list, scenes, and a QR code to your full program on Cast98!

Bippity boppity... BOOYA!!! 🪄 Conflict calendars instantly sync from cast submissions.

🚀 How EASY will it be to solicit sponsors when you tell them exactly how many people see and engage ads in your program?
