Does the person introducing me know what I want them to say?
… take a short biography about yourself
just in case they do not
- Is the room layout as I expected?
…if not can you change it
- Are the technical people comfortable with what I need in terms of
audio-visual back-up?
…talk to them and get them on your side
- Do the presenters before and after me need
a different stage layout?
…if they do, agree how you are going to
change things
- Where are the light switches, heating controls
and curtain pulls?
…you may need to change the environment
- Will there be any noise from adjacent rooms?
…it helps if you know before the noise
starts to distract your audience
- Where are the emergency exits?
…if an alarm sounds whilst you are
on stage, you may have to direct people to the exits
