Technical Theatre

Our technical theatre program provides a comprehensive overview to students to work behind the scenes for theatrical productions. We offer courses in sound design, lighting design, production design, costume design and construction, basic stagecraft, and production management. Students can earn credit while working on our stage productions as designers, and build a strong portfolio of work prior to graduation. Theatre technicians can also earn and learn while working in the department too.
