What is a "cue"?
A cue is a signal or prompt for an actor or crew member to begin a specific action or deliver a line during a performance. It can be a verbal signal, such as a line spoken by another character, or a visual or auditory signal, such as a light change or sound effect. Cues help ensure that the performance runs smoothly and that timing is synchronized among all elements of the production.
