This is a non-performance course, which gives the student a chance to explore the technical side of theatre. Students work both in class and outside the timetable on drama department productions and eventually become the running crew. Students will experience costume, makeup, sound, lights, set construction, and stage management. Students must be committed to theatre studies to be successful in this course. This course consists of time outside the student timetable and involves a student’s time commitment around the drama and dance production.
