Commissioner of Technical Theatre

The Commissioner of Technical Theatre of SLOHS Performing Arts is the head of the SLOHS Performing Arts Department of Technical Theatre. The Commissioner of Technical Theatre is responsible for all technical components of staged productions, particularly scenery, props, lighting, and sound, as well as working closely with the Commissioners of Costuming and Cosmetics. The Commissioner of Technical Theatre is also a member of the Performing Arts Company.

The office was established on April 27, 2021 with the merging of Drama Club, Improv Team, and Iambic Pentameter. Commissioners are appointed in the fall to serve a term of one school year. There is no term limit; it has not been determined, however, if incumbent commissioners must reapply to serve additional terms. Interested candidates for the Technical Theatre commission go through an application process similar to that of other commissioner positions.

Gavin Wren is the second and current Commissioner of Technical Theatre, assuming office on September 17, 2022.
