All those others are good here are three of my favorites...
-Make a photo copy of the script single sided. Put it in a binder. This way you have the blank back of the previous page on the left to add notes as needed.
-Go to an office store and buy some little colored sticker dots. Put dots in your script to color code all your calls. Warning-yellow, stand by-red, go-yellow... or whatever works for you. You can also mark sound vs. light cues if you like.
-While at the office supply store get: A pack of a dozen mechanical pencils, a good eraser, I like the "D" ring binders... you'll need either a 2 or 3 inch depending on the length of the script.... and one of those little plastic pencil bags that snaps into the rings of a 3 ring binder... to keep it all in. Put a bunch of blank sheets of paper in the back of the script.
-Since you have some time you might pick up a book on Stage management. There are several out there. A very experienced
Stage Manager I know Recommends "Stage Management" by Lawrence Stern. The current 8th edition is about $66 but you can
get a used 7th edition from Amazon for $18.50.
