He/she works with the performers (actor cast/musicians) and motivates them

playing of instrument, the director/orchestra conductor identifies that.

Both attempt to bring to life a script/score and make an intended audience

This ensures that the technical aspects such as lighting, sound, costume and
many other technical properties of the activity is properly aligned and
maintained in their proper position. Usually, the Properties Director is

The name aptly describes the role of technical rehearsals. The word
"technical" implies the application of proper craft and techniques to deal with
the demand of the crowd, masses and the segments involved.)
