Tour Scheduling How can Tour History Help you? Your ContactsAI Enabled
You can ask it questions in plain English and it will serve you up the information that you need.
You don't have to remember how to look for a contact or search for a type of venue, let StageSwift do the work for you.
StageSwift AI is trained to use your data only so you will not see irrelevant information from elsewhere.
- Have we toured to this venue before?
- Who is trained to be in this production?
- Do we have journalist contact details?
- What lighting technicians have we worked with?
Not in the Spec
A techical specification for a Venue can only hold so much information; hopefully everything that you need to know about the performance area but there are so many more things to consider.
By keeping note of information specific to your organisation or even specific to a given production, you can save time and stress when choosing a venue for your next tour.
Here are just some of the things that would be nice to know:
- Road closures - e.g. pedestrianised roads between 10 and 4
- Narrow corridors with tight corners that prohibit some pieces of set from being used
- Crew / performer areas which are not accessible for people with mobility, visual, auditory or other challenges
- Easy negotiations with past performance information to hand
- Is there a laundry nearby?
- Safeguarding: are their separate toilets for children?
