Run of show
Run of Show Software for Live Events
Most run-of-show tools were built for film sets. Workhorse was built by a show caller for conferences, town halls, galas, and hybrid events, where the schedule changes while you're live.
Start from whatever you already have
Type notes, paste an agenda, or snap a photo of a marked-up paper run of show. Workhorse turns it into a full cue sheet: segment timing, presenters, audio and mic assignments, projector and monitor notes, and a calling script. Export it to Excel or Word for the crew.
Call the show from the same plan
On show day the run of show drives the room. Cue Light gives every operator a color-coded standby and go. Go/Standby puts live status on crew phones with no login. Green Room tracks who's on deck, and Director Mode auto-spotlights speakers in Zoom for hybrid events.
Everything around the show, in one place
Crew booking, vendor certificates of insurance, call sheets, budgets, and the wrap report live on the same job, so the run of show isn't an island in someone's inbox.
Questions
- Can I import a paper or PDF run of show?
- Yes. Upload a photo or a scanned PDF and Workhorse reads it into an editable cue sheet with timing, presenters, and mic assignments.
- Does it work for hybrid and virtual events?
- Yes. Director Mode runs inside Zoom and spotlights each speaker from the run of show, and Breakout Choreographer times breakout rooms.
- How much does it cost?
- Pro is $59 a month, Studio (with the live show-calling tools and the RFP Reader) is $99 a month, and Team is $249 a month for 10 logins. Yearly plans get 2 months free.
