This is terrific! I’m a sound tech in Chicago, and this is exactly the kind of thing I wish I had seen before my first pro production. Sound for theatre is such a weird thing, so happy to see someone sharing how we actually do it.
The terminology difference is interesting to me. In the USA, we would say SR (stage right) and SL (stage left) rather than PS and OP. Do you use the terms A1 for the mixer and A2 for the radio tech? Or is that also a country-specific thing?

We absolutely also use SR/SL, I’ve just always personally used PS/OP more not really sure why haha
Our A1 would be our Head of Sound (who does not most of the mixing and leads the team) our A2 is Deputy Head of sound, and the A3 is the radio tech! Some shows might only have 2 members some might have 4, but that’s a pretty typical team here
