As of right now there is no good prebuilt software for audio in theater on linux. I am slowly working my way through APIs to start working on one, but have been for some time so don't hold your breath;) I don't plan on doing anything for video though, sorry. Pd should be able to be programmed to do what you want in most cases though, but I am not familiar with the video side of things in it.
I've had good experience using PD to run theatre sound. I haven't done any performances where I also used video(I've usually used my crappy old laptop) but i had the whole show programmed to respond to my Behringer control surface, so the operator didn't even need the computer to be open to run the show. It had a combination of chased cue sequences and more manual controls. It was kind of hacked together though, so I've been meaning to put together a more systematic and extensible system for doing just this. Once I get it together I'll put an announcement out. -spencer
