Quick answer
What this page settles
A working script is a live-control document, not a wall of polished paragraphs. Use this page to create a stage sequence protecting entrances, sightlines, resets and attention. The working record is stage map, entrance side, prop order and clear-to-go cue; the main failure to prevent is people or props crossing before the stage is reset.
