Scheduling Made Simple with CUR8: Conflict-Free Calendars for Every Member

One of the trickiest parts of planning a production isn’t building sets or memorizing lines—it’s managing the schedule. Between rehearsals, tech runs, sports games, family obligations, and everything else in life, keeping track of who can be where (and when) can feel overwhelming.

That’s where CUR8 steps in.

Build Conflicts into the Schedule from the Start

When a student, parent, or participant signs up for a show or activity in CUR8, they can immediately enter any conflicts they already know about—vacations, dance recitals, work shifts, you name it. Instead of discovering those conflicts weeks into the rehearsal process, directors have them all upfront.

No more chasing people down or adjusting on the fly—CUR8 captures and organizes conflicts right from day one.

Personalized Calendars for Every Cast and Crew Member

Here’s the real magic: CUR8 doesn’t just give you a giant calendar to sort through. It curates a personalized rehearsal and event calendar for each member of your production. That means:

• A stage manager sees the full master calendar.

• A cast member only sees the rehearsals and performances they’re called to.

• Crew members get schedules tailored to their specific assignments.

• Participants can subscribe to the calendar for up to the minute changes.

Everyone stays on the same page, without the clutter of unnecessary events.

The Real Power: When Activities Overlap

Where CUR8 really shines is when students are involved in more than one activity on campus—say theatre and sports, or choir and debate. If both departments use CUR8, the student (and their parents) are no longer caught in the middle of scheduling conflicts.

For example: imagine a student who has a basketball game and a dress rehearsal on the same night. Instead of the student stressing over who to disappoint, CUR8 makes the conflict visible to both the coach and the director. Together, they can adjust expectations, plan accordingly, and avoid putting the student in an impossible situation.

With CUR8, communication is increased, decisions are collaborative, and everyone—directors, coaches, parents, and students—stays on the same page.

Fewer Surprises, More Time for the Art

By putting scheduling conflicts and personalized calendars in one place, CUR8 takes the stress out of logistics. Directors can plan smarter, students can better balance commitments, and parents can finally stop asking, “Do you need to be there tonight?”

The result? More time and energy go into what really matters: creating great art and unforgettable experiences together.
