What Overture Does
A run-of-show tool
that holds up at 5pm.
Overture replaces the brittle Excel run of show with a purpose-built app for corporate conference producers, stage managers, and crew. Here's everything it does.
Built around the realities of a live show
Every feature in Overture exists because a producer asked for it. No fluff, no "AI-powered" novelties, no dashboards you'll never open. Just the tools a real stage management team needs to keep a general session on time.
Tabbed sessions
One tab per session, day, or stage. Switch contexts without scrolling through 600 rows.
Drag-and-drop rows
Reorder cues, sessions, or break blocks with a mouse. Times recalculate automatically — no cascading formula explosions.
Auto-timing math
Insert a 4-minute video at 9:23am and every downstream cue shifts. The math is built in.
Printable crew sheets
One-click export per role — lighting, audio, video, stage, security. PDFs that match what's on screen.
Four permission levels
Owner, Producer, Crew, Viewer — enforced server-side. The producer edits, the crew references the rundown, the client watches read-only.
Live show clock
A real-time clock during the show, with running variance from the planned timing. Know instantly if you're 6 minutes late.
Follow-up flags
Tag a cue with a question for legal, a missing graphic, or a pending VIP arrival. Nothing falls through.
Tabs per day or stage
Tabbed sessions per day or stage — name the tabs how your show is organized.
Duplicate an event
Clone any past event in one click. Same client next year, same conference different city, repeat broadcast — start from a finished run of show instead of a blank sheet. Included on Pro and Agency.
What's coming next
Active development. Roadmap items in flight include presenter check-in, ICS export to crew calendars and AV gear assignment. Subscribers vote on what we build next.
