Technical Theatre Workshop (ages 11-16)

Technical Theatre Workshop (ages 11-16)

Thursday 18 February 2027

Discover

Dive behind the scenes of the theatre in our technical workshop designed to explore how sound, lighting and stage management work together to bring a performance to life.

Through hands-on activities and engaging discussions, you'll learn how technical theatre elements help enhance storytelling, create immersive worlds and add that touch of magic to performances. We'll focus on understanding stage management, working with communications equipment, explore how lighting and sound work within a live production and how all these elements need to work in conjunction to ensure the saying ‘the show must go on’.

This session is led by a theatre technician for Chelmsford Theatre so along with learning the skills needed, you will also find out what it’s like to work in a professional theatre.

Whether you're a budding theatre enthusiast or just curious about behind-the-scenes magic, this is your chance to find out more.

Chelmsford Theatre is committed to creating a fully inclusive Discover Programme. We ask if you have any questions, or would like some additional support that you contact us at outreach.theatre@chelmsford.gov.uk
