Technical Director at Quaker School. Teach grades 9-12 in Technical Theatre classes. Looking for creative ideas and lesson plans in technical theatre. I am also the only technical theatre teacher in the area (Jenkintown, PA) and would love to hear from other teachers about their programs and what they cover.

I'd love to have some ideas too. My technical theatre students are mixed with my stage crafts / acting class or are volunteers who do not take the class for credit. For my students, I have placed a script in their hands, assumed the role of director, given them an idea how I have envisioned the set designs then set them free to create a tech design and plot. We are learning how to use some of the free 3D programs on-line to mock up stage designs...I have them do workshops where the advanced tech students train the newbies...I have a growing library of tech books on stage lighting and sound design. I have them do individual research from these books. They keep a journal of notes from these texts/books/manuals and we have class discussions where they teach the rest of the group what they've learned. My limitation is that our stage is at the end of a "cafetorium" which means we have very limited lighting (one batten of elipsoidals, one batten of fresnels, and two rows of border color strips--There's a great book out there called "Stage Lighting in the Boondocks"...I am convinced the author worked on my stage...it's how to do a lot with nothing! but that book gives great suggestions on how to work from scratch. A great project...assume you have nothing...build a tech design from nothing...build your own PAR cans...etc. ... design a lighting tree...Send me some ideas. I'd love to share

I'm desperately looking for quality short plays (assembly length - 50 minutes) for cast of 14 or more (7 male 7 female). I'm been disappointed
with an abundance of short plays offered in the standard catalogs...and blurbs don't tell you anything...you purchase a copy...and discover
you've got a 20 minute script with not much meat...my kids are after dynamic scripts...any ideas?
