Online alarm clock for 10:16 pm
You are handing the local theatre rehearsal over to someone else at 10:16 pm, with notes exchanged and one last cue still needing attention. An alarm can mark the point when your part of the evening is finished, so the changeover does not drift towards 11:00 pm while everyone waits for a clear signal.
The rehearsal space determines what sort of alarm tone makes sense. A gentle sound suits a quiet scene or a moment when actors are listening closely, while a persistent tone is harder to miss among music, movement and backstage chatter. The volume can be checked before rehearsing resumes, with the alarm kept close enough for the person taking over to hear it. If the browser session ends or the phone falls asleep, the rehearsal alert will not sound, so a separate backup is sensible when the handover depends on that cue.
Late-evening theatre work often happens under bright stage lamps even when the foyer and streets outside are dim. Before the 10:16 pm alarm is due, lowering nearby work lights can make its screen easier to spot without interrupting the stage setup. Keeping one small light near the handover notes also helps the next person read names, cues and timing after the main lights go down.
Common questions
Why use a browser alarm instead of my phone's built-in one?
Mainly for reliability against silent mode, do-not-disturb, or a phone left charging out of earshot. It's a useful backup or a desk-based alternative, though it depends on this tab staying open rather than running in the background of your phone.
Is there a cost to use this?
No, it's free, with no sign-up and no limit on how many times you set it. It just needs the tab left open until the time you've chosen arrives.
Will the alarm still ring if I close the browser tab?
No. The alarm only runs while this tab stays open — closing it, or closing the browser entirely, stops the countdown before it can ring. Keep the tab open in the background if you need it to go off later.
Does the alarm work if my laptop goes to sleep?
Not reliably. If the device sleeps or the screen locks, the browser tab pauses along with it, so the alarm may not fire on time or at all. Adjust your power settings if you're relying on this over a longer stretch.
