Mallory's Take
There were quite a few thing I was in charge of as ASM for 'Tis Pity. For every performance we created a batch of fake blood which I taught and oversaw two crew members in. There were also double doors on the bottom and top levels of the set that were manually operated by crew. I created a door cue sheet based of my exits and entrances and communicated with the stage manager to discuss which door cues were going to be called by them. I was in charge of the artificial blood and weapons each night as well. I disassembled each weapon for cleaning for cleaning and worked closely with the costume crew to make sure the costumes were protected from the blood or properly cleaned after interacting with it.
