Default Pre Production.
Who has been involved in Pre-production? Basically setting up the set for any play. It takes months to do. Parts are often recycled to save time on a project. And there is a lot of cool stuff to do putting it all together.

If people are interested, Try taking a Technical theaters course. It's a course set up around a set's construction and pre-production. Plus it's a lot of fun to see the play at the end of the course and look at all of your work come together.

I've actually built and drawn pieces for sets of shows.

Charlie and the chocolate factory. I practically buildt our boat that sails on the chocolate river.

A good skill to have if you are going to be in theatre

yeah, in most of the plays I have been in, I have also been in the pre-productions. And yes... It did really take months to get everything ready...

Lighting Rigs = <3

They're just so much fun to set up and mess around with, in a wholly serious manner

Yeah, but sometimes there are things that aren't really all that exciting. Like this first time, I worked on a set for a play called Quilters, we had to sew together two quilts to act a a fricken back drop. It took foever!

Our director expects us to put in twenty hours of tech in per show.
So, yeah. I've helped build sets, set up lights, etc.

^ I don't like it when directors require that the actors build sets.
its not what we signed up for. so to make it a requirement is wrong
