Stage School: Prompter 101

Read the line. Watch the strip. Hold for the host.

Five minutes with the AI coach learning the karaoke prompter: reading at the highlighted pace, watching the 'next line' strip, and holding when the host is speaking. Six practice lines of varied length and pace, one deliberate hold, one skipped-cue trap. Pass: lines within 20% of target pace and no cue skipped.

Roles

Talent roles are gated by tier; player roles are open to anyone who has verified their email. Any role can be covered by an AI understudy if the producer's fill policy allows it.

    Understudy persona: Coach โ€” patient, specific, celebrates small wins, never sarcastic

    Read each highlighted line as the words light up, not faster. When the Coach is speaking, wait. When the strip says 'next: you', get ready.
