Standby (theater)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It has been suggested that this article or section be merged into understudy. (Discuss)

A standby is an actor or performer who will appear in a particular role if the regular performer is not present – similar to an understudy. However, unlike understudies, standbys will only perform when they are needed to cover a role, and do not regularly appear in a show.
