Show run time calculator

Add segment durations and transition buffers to calculate a complete show run time and spot the longest blocks.

Enter one named segment per line with its duration and optional transition buffer to calculate the full run time.

Result

Add the full run of show

Enter lines such as “Opening | 00:45 | 5” and “Interview | 12:00 | 10”. The calculator adds each segment and transition buffer, then reports the complete duration and the largest blocks. The result is produced locally.

Keep a rehearsal margin

Planned speech, applause, audience interaction, and technical resets often run longer than a script. Add explicit buffers instead of hiding them inside segment estimates, and compare the calculated total with a timed rehearsal before publishing a schedule.
