This is a two-week practical introduction to Theatre Technology and Design including set, costume, stage makeup, lighting and sound. The first week will be comprised of workshops and exercises that will introduce students to core skills including set construction, scenic painting, wardrobe, stage makeup, sound and lighting. In week two we will explore Theatre Design and Stage Management, culminating in the students having an opportunity to apply their newly learned skills to a live performance. They will also have and opportunity to display their design work for family and friends.
This workshop will be designed and coordinated by Graham Price, Ottawa Little Theatre Production Manager, and former Programme Leader for BA Theatre Production at the University of Winchester in the UK. The course will also utilise contributions from some of the Ottawa Little Theatre top designers.
The Technical Theatre and Design Workshop runs for two weeks, August 7-17, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday to Friday.
There will be an opportunity to show your family and friends what you’ve learned on the second Friday, August 17 from 4-6 p.m.
