What is flub
flub is a stage management app built for the way rehearsals actually work. Import your script, track every note by character and line, and carry your complete promptbook from the first read-through to closing night.
Drop in a PDF, digital or scanned, and flub parses it into a line-by-line promptbook automatically.
Dialogue, staging, cues, props, and designer notes each live in their own panel, attached to the line they belong to.
Start on your Mac in the production office. Pick up on your iPad in the rehearsal room. Everything stays in sync.
Built-in stopwatch and metrics so you always know where you stand against your target running time.
Export a clean, formatted PDF at the end of every rehearsal. Line notes, staging, props, and designer notes organized by page, ready to share with your production team.
Who it's for
flub is made for the stage management team, from the first rehearsal to the final curtain.
Your complete promptbook, script, blocking, cues, and all your notes, organized by line and always with you.
Track your assigned tracks, add notes from the floor, and stay in sync with the SM's book in real time.
A clean, structured tool for teaching stage management fundamentals and professional promptbook practice.
Features
