    • 2017 January 5, Inger Duberg, “Johan har full koll på scenen [Johan has full control of the stage]”, in Göteborgs-Posten:
      När vi flyttade tillbaka igen, fick jag frågan om jag vill prova på att vara inspicient. Det ville jag och fick gå som lärling en tid hos en annan inspicient innan jag fick min första egna produktion, som var Pelle Snusk, på Studion, hösten 2002. [] I Sverige finns det ingen utbildning för inspicienter. Förmodligen beror det på att arbetet varierar på de olika teatrarna. De flesta inspicienter skolas in i yrket genom utbildning internt.
      When we moved back again, I was asked if I want to try being an stage manager. I wanted that and had to apprentice for a while with another stage manager before I got my first own production, which was Der Struwwelpeter, at Studion, in the autumn of 2002. In Sweden, there is no school for stage managers. It is probably because the work varies in the different theatres. Most stage managers are trained in the profession through in-house training.
    • 1894, Tor Hedberg, Farbror Agathon med flere noveller, page 105:
      Han spelar i lifvet ungefär samma roll som en gammal inspicient gör på teatern. Han visar sig aldrig på scenen, men är oumbärlig bakom kulisserna, kan alla rollerna utantill, och gör tecken åt skådespelaren, när det är tid för honom att lägga sitt ansikte i ordning för entrén, []
      He plays in life much the same role as an old stage manager does at the theater. He never appears on the stage, but is indispensable behind the scenes, knows all the parts by heart, and makes signs to the actor, when it is time for him to put his face in order for the entrance,

Usage notes

  • Inspicient used to refer to the stage manager of theatre, movie and TV productions. However, both movie and TV productions have started to use the term inspelningsledare (literally recording leader) instead.
