Plot

A list or drawing that maps one department's work through the show: a light plot, a sound plot, a costume plot.

Usage differs: in the UK a plot is usually a running list of cues, or the session where they are built; in the US a light plot is a scaled drawing of where every light hangs. In script terms, plot just means the story.
