Lifelong learning! 

No matter your level of expertise, there is always something new to learn!

Theatre is more than a form of entertainment; it is a tool to enrich the lives of the participants as well as the patrons experiencing the show.  Performing, creating, and appreciating theatre brings richness and meaning to our heritage and culture.

TIP Mainstage: Advanced Technical Theater (Ages 16-18)
This camp will be held at the Theatre in the Park’s outdoor scene shop where we will be busy working on the current show and participants will have the opportunity to interact with the TIP scenic crews. This camp will include working outdoors when weather permits. Participants will be introduced to other technical elements such as lighting, sound, hair and makeup, costumes, and props.  In addition to an assortment of hands-on experiences over a variety of tech elements, participants will design and build a scenic element that will be on the TIP stage by opening night of the final show of the season, FOOTLOOSE! After spending the week behind the stage, participants will have an opportunity to choose a performance night and shadow in the tech booth to get a feel for how all the tech elements come together to transport audiences to another place and time.  Participants will receive four comp tickets to see the current production on the outdoor Theatre in the Park stage.
