"Technical Theater was by far one of the best classes I took in high school. This is for three reasons: creativity, freedom, and community... Technical theater has pushed my boundaries as a craftsman, but more importantly, it has stretched my mind and challenged me to think in new ways."

Members of the Technical Theatre class are responsible for running the shows once opening night arrives.  Students run the show from backstage, booth, dressing rooms, and front of house.  Ingraham Theatre productions are in the hands of the students once the curtain rises.
