One of the most complex shows I ever SM'd was for a student production of "4.48 Psychosis."
I was seated prompt side, but had 5 10" monitors at my desk.
One for OP side, watching the backstage area.
One IN THE TECH BOX - keep an eye up there.
TWO foh cameras, one normal colour ccd, and the other infra-red. (If you've never done this, try it, especially when ur show has lots of blackouts.)
I then had one ABOVE the stage, so I could get the perspective right when we flung in drops, props and MIRRORS !?!?
Then there was the comms to the box and my ASM on OP, then my cue lights, then my FOH intercom, then the internal phone, then my script.
(lucky i had a big desk)
