You wonder what she is when you first catch sight of her. An apparition conjured from your own loneliness? A muse sent to taunt your empty quill? A siren coaxing you to sail onto the rocks? She is, apparently, none of these things. You watch her closely. She forms shadows upon your floor and you decide that she is not wholly immaterial… - show me your soul (i’ll show you mine) by @paperlesscrown

Broadway ditches age-old processes to run shows with iPads

(CNN)From Elsa's magic in Frozen -- and those gigantic ice shards that rise from the stage -- to social media taking on a nearly principle role in Dear Evan Hansen, the Great White Way produces some of Broadway's most elaborate and technical stage spectacles two times a day.

Now, backstage is catching up to the innovation we see in the seats.

Several shows, including Kinky Boots and Pretty Woman: The Musical, are shifting to a paperless system that packs the script, lyrics, videos, and costume and prop notes, into one spot for the director, crew and cast members.

The productions are leaning on an app from startup ProductionPro, which is already used at companies such as Walt Disney Studios to help produce film and TV shows.

During a recent rehearsal of Pretty Woman: The Musical attended by a handful of reporters, production stage manager Thomas Recktenwald ran lines with three cast members subbing in for an evening performance. Swiping through the ProductionPro app on an iPad Pro, Recktenwald showed off recent changes made to the script. It had notes scribbled into the margins via an Apple Pencil, and he tapped his way through videos that highlight blocking, broken down scene by scene.

On the choreography side, the dance captain might show the newer actors or understudies how a scene may look when a palm tree crosses from side of the stage to another, and where they'll need to stand nearby.

For last minute changes, productions like Pretty Woman are not only saving time but cutting down a significant amount of paper waste. Production associates typically sprint to copy machines to give the cast and crew a look at what's new. (On average, the show changed about 30 pages a day during its 12-week pre-production period -- and about 50 people received those copies daily). But Recktenwald or director Jerry Mitchell now pushes the update to anyone who's been given a ProductionPro log-in.

"We've gone through pages and pages of paper that have been printed, distributed multiple times a day and then recycled or discarded in the same day -- and even in the same hour -- to improve the show to what we see on stage today," he said.

ProductionPro founder Alex Libby, who started as a Broadway stage manager, came up with the concept to simplify the process five years ago when he was a producer alongside director Stephen Daldry, known for his work on The Crown and Billy Elliot on Broadway.

"We were working on a brand new show at his kitchen table in the Meatpacking District," Libby told reporters. "There was paper everywhere -- costume designs, set designs and script pages constantly changing. He looked up from this mess and was like, 'I need a way to see this almost like a musical score; where I can see the entire opus in one place. I need a window into the world that we're creating.'"

Libby transitioned from the musical world to launch his own software company, which now has 10 employees working out of its Brooklyn, New York, office. While ProductionPro is focused on rolling out the technology to even more shows on Broadway, it's also currently being used by 400 US high schools working on theatrical productions.

David McQueen, research director at tech advisory firm ABI Research, says the move to streamline large-scale productions to tablets makes sense.

"Tablets are gaining traction in many industries and businesses, from education and healthcare to lawyers and restaurants, so it is of no surprise that Broadway is also turning to them for ease of access to vast amounts of scripts and videos," he told CNN Business.

He emphasized how tablets enable real-time long-distance sharing in a relatively easy-to-use form factor has broad appeal.

"And of course, there are also the immediate benefits of reducing paper waste and literal storage space," he said. "Bye-bye, filing cabinets."

Or in Broadway's case, farewell 10-pound production books.

Bughead + Covinsky parallels. ♡ Happy Birthday Liz, @paperlesscrown ♡ ↳ Liz, I can’t even begin to define what you mean to me and this fandom.

WHAT AN AMAZING WAY TO END MY BIRTHDAY! LIZ, YOU NEVER CEASE TO AMAZE AND INSPIRE ME.

Thank you for indulging my nerdy love for observational astronomy and combining it with the pure joy that is SH. ❤️ You are truly a GIFT - and a true dream team partner. Sending an immeasurable amount of love and thanks to you for writing my dream drabble.

I have no more words, I feel like Cassiopeia just exploded inside my heart.

This never gets old, she thought. The intensity of his eyes. The way his face took on a steely resolve right before he kissed her. As if he was doing something heavily serious and significant. He would probably argue that he was.

LIZ! I am crying, this honestly means so much to me, thank you for your incredibly kind words. I am so honoured that I could help inspire this beautiful fic.

Also Paperless Shards™ is amazing and is definitely going to be our trademark from now on and that makes me so incredibly happy ❤️

Liz, that fanfic was perfect! I have so many thoughts and feelings! I want to thank you for always approaching characters with such an extraordinary amount of delicacy and respect. For writing them with such truth, it can be seen as a perfect extension of their character. You are a true creator and a literary genius. Thank you for gracing this fandom with your undeniable talent. I am so incredibly honoured and thankful to create alongside you. Dream Team! ❤️

SHARDS. Can I just say, I got your gif while I was halfway through and seriously floundering and doubting myself, and that’s how I got the motivation to keep going. It’s uncanny how you are able to pick my brain and listen to my ramblings and are able to intuitively create something so beautiful and spot-on. You were a real contributor to the fic, not just in an aesthetic sense but in an inspirational sense!

Thank you for sharing your gifts with us, thank you for reading and sending me this beautiful message, and THANK YOU ESPECIALLY for being one-half of this amazing creative team!

Paperless Shards™ forever!
