    Join us for an exciting week learning all about different aspects of theatre design and technology and working backstage!

    Each day of the week will focus on a different aspect of backstage work. We will cover scenic, costume, lighting, props, and sound (and maybe even a little more).

    Days will be largely composed of hands-on work in the various areas, theatres, and classroom spaces of 网红头条鈥檚 Department of Theatre and Performance Studies.

    You may use this week as an opportunity to dip your toes in the water of many different aspects of technical theatre and design. The week-long session will culminate in a final showcase day in collaboration with the Acting and Musical Theatre intensives.

    The intensive is open to rising 9th - 12th grade students. Please register early as space is limited.
