Theatre Production and Design Techniques (Half credit)

In this course students who are collaborating on thesis 500/700 productions in the role of designers, technicians, or stage managers will be mentored by the theatre faculty and staff on a variety of topics as needed by their productions. Students will learn to manage resources of time, budget, and labor in collaboration with the artistic and technical team. Round table style discussions, journaling and experiential work will be tailored to specific production needs ultimately culminating in a realized thesis production. We will talk about the next steps beyond what it taught in a design class and talk about the technical needs of producing a theatrical design in real life. (Half-credit course)
