Technical Theatre

<p>Two of my S’s close friends have just started technical theatre programs. One applied EA to Emerson and never looked back. The other applied to Hofstra where he ended up and I recall him talking about his interest in programs at Purchase and New Paltz. Fordham LC where my S ended up for performance/playwriting also has a good but very small program…there are 2 Design/Production majors in the Class of 2014. </p>

<p>I recommend you search this forum for Technical Theatre threads and start with this one <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/theater-drama-majors/623794-technical-theater.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/theater-drama-majors/623794-technical-theater.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>I have to say that I really haven’t read it too carefully since my S was not/is not pursuing tech but if it’s like any of the typical CC threads there is a lot of info there and you can create a good list of schools to look into. Search their websites thoroughly for specific info about the training and curriculum and visit the schools that you are most interested in. Good luck! :)</p>
