Technical Theatre- Thursday, 6pm-7:30pm

The Magic Happens Behind the Scenes
Every great production needs an amazing crew! In our Technical Theatre class, students become the creative team behind Disney’s Aladdin KIDS, MAGIC CARPET CAST. They’ll learn how a show comes together by designing, building, organizing, and running the production from behind the curtain.
This class is perfect for students who love creating, building, painting, organizing, problem-solving, or want to explore theatre beyond performing.
No previous experience is required.

Real Production Experience
Throughout the semester, students will create props, build set pieces, paint scenery, organize backstage areas, and prepare the technical elements used in Disney’s Aladdin KIDS. Students will learn lighting and sound, to better understand how all the departments affect each other. During performances, they will serve as the official production crew, helping with scene changes, props, backstage organization, and ensuring every performance runs smoothly.
This class is ideal for students interested in theatre production, design, engineering, art, event production, or simply discovering another side of theatre.
Attendance
Because students are members of the production crew, attendance is especially important.
