I am Kyle, of Minnehaha academy in minneapolis, a member of the shrinking tech crew. I do a little bit of everything from the usual rigging and light hanging to running (and a little designing of) sound and mic wrangling. Each year we do about 5 productions, including a Madrigal dinner of epic proportions, the occasional musical, and this funky 'student showcase' which is a collection of student directed 1 act plays. Our school just changed TD over the summer, and the theater director left without warning, so we have been going through a bit of chaos, with temporary directors and all.I really find being on the tech crew to be a good experience, as well as a bit of fun. The reason I found this forum was because a friend suggested it on our own private tech forum. Glad to be here!

When you say "shrinking tech crew" does that mean you guys are all getting smaller ? 'Cause, Honestly, that could come in handy. You could run around all under the platforms and help find squeaks, run cables under the stage... that would be cool !
