Tech Week Expectations
Tech Week is an important theatre tradition that really allows all elements of the show to come together. While tech weeks can be stressful, they can also be very exciting and fun!
All students must be in attendance for tech week rehearsals and shows. Mr. McCrossan and Mr. Graham will be in the auditorium at 2pm. We encourage students to bring homework to work on when they are not on stage. After 3pm, students are not allowed to go back to team areas in the building, so they should plan accordingly!
Students can stay on team to work on any assessments or to speak with team teachers until 2:20 on tech week days.
We allot one hour for students to get ready for show runs during tech rehearsals. During that time, students should get themselves into costume, hair and makeup, and microphones (if necessary). Show runs typically begin between 3:00 & 3:15
The auditorium, cafeteria and hallways around the auditorium must be clean and all show supplies must be packed up and moved out of the cafeteria after EACH tech rehearsal. Students are responsible for making sure that their costumes and belongings etc. get to the correct storage space.
Students are encouraged to bring extra water and food to tech week rehearsals. Students are NOT allowed to use any food delivery services to deliver food to QMS. Parents are more than welcome to drop food off at any point during rehearsals.
We work very hard to make sure that students are ready to be dismissed by 6pm!
