Behind every great performance is a dedicated technical team.

Our Tech Theatre interns recently had the opportunity to tour La Jolla Playhouse, exploring the Mandell Weiss Theatre, Potiker Theatre, Mandell Weiss Forum, carpentry shop, props storage, and costume shop. It was an inspiring look at the work that happens behind the curtain to bring productions to life.

If your student is interested in theatre, technology, or live production, our Tech Theatre Summer Camp is a great place to start.
