Theatre Tech

A Dramatic Way to Learn the Trades

Theatre Tech expands the world of the ‘traditional trades’ to tap into the artistic side of the construction-centric mind. These classes are designed to prepare students for extended study/on-site training for jobs in a myriad of performance/conference venues. Students will learn the basics of event setup, coordination and management, scenic design/construction, basic theatrical lighting/electrical tools and maintenance, sound system setup, tool knowledge and safe workplace practices. This program will give students the opportunity to build a diverse toolbox of skills in a slightly different environment than the Trades program. Many of these skills can lead directly into post-secondary and apprenticeship programs.
