I'm currently working on editing a piece for orchestra and narrator, and a question came up about standard practice. Often, when the narrator is delivering his line, there are rests in the orchestra with fermatas over them. I've inserted cues, the last line the narrator reads, in all the parts. Currently the score is set up the same way, with the conductor seeing the last line, like the orchestra, with plans to include the full narration on a separate page at the beginning of the score. How is it usually done? Is it better for the full narration to be in the score, even at a small print size, or would that just clutter up the score?

Thanks for the help.
