About This Activity
Tech Mentorship Program A Technical Theater training program. Students signed up for this class will have taken theater technical classes first. Students will meet twice a month with the Education Director to chat about their focus, what they have learned and for guidance in their field of interest. Students will then pick a focus for the next show that they can work on and they will shadow the professional designer for that show. Each student should have one credit (shows worked) in each technical theater focus, plus additional credits of their choosing in Sound, Lights, Set/Scenic/Projections, Costumes, Stage Management, and Props. After completing a design shadow in a specific field, the student can then apply to design their own Broadway Jr. or Off Broadway showcase. After their 6 credits are completed (they could earn up to 5 credits a year if they want) they can then choose to specialize in a particular area. The program is completed when a student has graduated high school and they will be acknowledged and given a certificate with their credits and specialization. This program looks great on a resume.
