TECHNICAL DESIGN and PRODUCTION FACULTY: Chuck Adomanis, Michael Backhaus, Alex Bagnall, Todd Berling, Erich Bolton, John Boyd, Damian Doria, Tony Forman, Alan Hendrickson, Robin Hirsch, Troy Jensen, David Johnson, Eugene Leitermann, Tom McAlister, Jennifer McClure, Neil Mulligan, Jonathan Reed, William J. Reynolds, David P. Schrader, Matthew T. Welander Contemporary theatre design and production practices are profoundly influenced by the technology and economics of our age. The diverse aesthetics and the increasingly complex electronic and mechanical components now being employed in the performing arts require professionals who can understand and apply these technologies to the achievement of artistic goals. The department’s sequence of required courses focuses on key principles of the physical and social sciences and their application to performing arts technology. Concurrently, each student pursues elective courses that lead to a concentration in Production Management, Technical Direction, Stage Machinery Design and Automation, or Theatre Planning and Consulting.
