THE LANGUAGE

Small syntax. Clear timing.

StageCue parses a line-based show script into cue blocks. Each cue has a start time and duration, plus optional light levels, a caption, and a built-in procedural sound. Light settings apply only to that cue. Overlapping cue windows are flagged, while playback stays available so you can inspect the conflict.
