Get-In and Get-Out Schedule

A free printable dressing room allocation sheet — which act or company has which room, from when until when, who holds the key, and a handback check after the show.
One page. Choose your paper size — both versions are laid out identically, so neither one gets shrunk to fit.

One page at stage door that answers the question every arriving act asks, and shows each room was cleared and locked afterwards.
Stage managers, company managers and venue staff at theatres, festivals, concert halls and multi-act nights.
One page, top to bottom:
Printed under the title: Which act or company member has which room, when they need it, and what is in it — posted at stage door so nobody has to ask twice and nobody finds their room already taken.
Rooms once, people per show. Fill in the rooms from the venue plan, then allocate. Note who holds each key or code and who checks the room after the show: a dressing room left unlocked with bags in it is the commonest post-show complaint.
Write-on lines: Venue · Production / event · Date(s) · Stage manager
Table, 13 rows: Room · Allocated to · Heads · Times · Key / code · Facilities · Cleared · Key back · Checked by

Put the truck, the lift, the crew call and the curfew on one page so the get-out is planned before the show rather than improvised after it.
Know how many keys exist and where they are, so you can tell whether a lock actually needs changing.
Keep every booking for a shared space in one visible place, which is the only reliable cure for double bookings.
Get the day out of one person's head and onto a page everybody can read, so the event does not stall when the organiser is dealing with something else.
Every sheet, binder, game and puzzle on Upkeep Papers is free to download, with no email and no account. Making them is not free: each one takes days of research, design and checking, and the site costs money to run. If something here saved you time, you can buy us a coffee. It is entirely optional: nothing is locked, and nothing changes if you don’t.
