Actually, Hustle And Bustle Are Taken In Quiet Stride . . . that Director Fred Carney quickly whipped into shape without fuss or furor. mannered London bank clerk who feared he had unwittingly committed a murder during a period of amnesia.) Eight days before the performance date, Helmore and the rest of the cast met to run through the show. First rehearsal (this one was on a Wednesday) lasts only about two hours. Each of the actors reads his part to give Carney an idea of how the various characters are to be in¬ tegrated. The actors return on Friday for another run-through. At this session, Carney begins planning camera shots. On Monday and Tuesday, the cast, having memorized roles, again re¬ hearses. The technical director who will work with the cameraman dur¬ ing the show, the head cameraman and the soundman are usually pres¬ ent. They watch the rehearsals with a master floor-plan of the studio spread out before them and block out the camera angles. The cast moves into the studio where the program will be telecast for the first time about noon on Wed¬ nesday. The sets and backdrops are all in place. The cameras remain idle, however, until the following day, since live camera rehearsal is costly and is held to a minimum. During the Wednesday rehearsal the actors run through the complete play twice. Carney’s production assistants also conduct a final check on timing of the show. Wednesday is the final re¬ hearsal, too, in which Carney can work with the actors on their char¬ acterizations, since he must devote most of the following day to his camera direction. The Show Shapes Up The cast arrives at the studio on Thursday at 2 P.M., just seven-and- a-half hours before air time. Once more they run through the script, this time with Carney and his tech¬ nicians in the control booth to deter¬ mine how the show looks on the monitors. At about 5:00, the actors go out for dinner. They return to the studio, made-up and in costume, for the dress rehearsal at 7:00. After rehearsal. Carney calls the cast together for last-minute instruc¬ tions. The actors then relax until the show takes the air at 9:30. Besides Carney, the other five Kraft producer - directors are Stan Quinn, Maury Holland. Dick Dunlap, Harry Herrmann and J. Fielder Cook. The average cast for a Kraft pro¬ duction comprises some 16 to 18 act¬ ors. With four production units in va¬ rious phases of rehearsal all the time, that means that Kraft employs an average of 60 to 70 actors each week. But are they caught up in a rat race? Never. Well . . . hardly ever. 9
