I'm stage managing my first paid production with a local company and the actors are a mix of equity and non-equity and in my prepping to work for a professional theatre I saw the pro rehearsal reports tracking equity hours. As non-equity myself what is that referring to and how do I track it? Does it refer to the amount of hours each actor that is equity has in rehearsal? Rehearsals start in a few weeks, I will ask the director if he wants the hours tracked but I don't want to seem like I don't know what I'm doing. I understand everything else from stage managing but I've never worked with equity actors before.
