How to add a row
Rows are where your show actually happens — each one is a moment on the run sheet with a time, a stage leader, and what's supposed to be on screen. Overture gives you two ways to add a new row to a session, depending on where you want it to land.
Every session in your Run of Show is a table of rows. Each row is one beat of the show — a speaker walking on stage, a video roll-in, a band changeover, doors opening. You can add as many rows as your show needs.
Heads up
Every new session starts with a small starter layout of placeholder rows — including a pre-built DOORS OPEN row in the middle. You don't need to add those manually. Just fill them in and add more rows around them.
Two ways to add a row
- Add row button — click + Add row at the bottom of the session table to append a new blank row at the end.
- Hover + icon on any row — to slot a row between two existing rows, hover the row you want the new one to follow. A small + icon appears on the far right — click it to insert a blank row immediately below.
Watch both methods
Short demo showing the + Add row button first (three rows added at the bottom, then deleted with the trash icon), followed by the in-row hover-insert (three rows added in the middle, then deleted). Once a row appears, click into any cell to start filling it in — time-off and the running clock recalculate automatically, and changes save as you type. There's no Save button.
Who can add rows?
Anyone with row-edit permission on the event — typically the event owner, org admins, and producers. View-only members will see the rows but won't see the + Add row button, the hover icons, or the colored shortcut buttons.
Heads up
Every session needs at least one row. If you try to delete the only remaining row, the trash icon will be disabled. Add a new row first, then delete the old one.
