We had the same problem when we did A Chorus Line at our high school last year. We actually implemented the idea of using mylar as a substitute. Moral of the story: it was a great idea, but it was poorly executed. The people who built the set made six 4' W X 14' H mirrors to cover the entire...

Good News! Got in touch with the guy who did the install. Should be back up and running for Monday. Good thing... I've got a plot that needs to go up by Wednesday.

I was in the same situation at this time last year. I applied to three schools on the east coast for a lighting design program. University of the Arts in Philly is just starting out but they have a pretty nice program. Emerson is just an obvious choice, I went and toured it and they have...

I'm a high school senior and will be graduating very soon. I have become extremely passionate about Technical Theatre throughout my high school years since I ran flys in my first show four years ago. I'm very interested in lighting and have applied to several schools to pursue a Theatre Design...
