"It's a Ship Show!" is a semi-set variety performance featuring a consistent host, cast of dancers, band, and rotating talent from guest artists or other onboard acts. This is a new piece created for Virgin Voyages new ship the Valiant Lady.
As the rehearsal PSM I played a key role in advancing production needs from the rehearsal studio shoreside to the onboard team preparing to tech this new show and launch a brand new ship. Through detailed reporting and archive work I facilitated a seamless handoff to the onboard team and a safe and efficient rehearsal process for the cast. As this was a new piece I was responsible for creating all original archive paperwork, videos, and rehearsal items.
