About our Technical Theatre Program
Students in all our performing arts magnet majors and across the Parkway Middle School of the Arts campus have the opportunity to work in our technical theatre programs.
Our backstage tech program focuses on scenic, costume, prop and makeup design as well as the various aspects of backstage running crews under the direction of Mr. John P. Oliver and in partnership with Mrs. Joan Oliver and Wildhorse Showorks.
Our electronic tech program focuses on the design and operations of lighting, sound, projections, and both photographic and video production under the direction of Mr. Javan Martin.
Both tech programs are organized through the Performing Arts Office under the direction of our Artistic Director Mrs. Joanette Brookes-George. Students who are interested in participating in either of these crews should stop by the Performing Arts Office or Mrs. Terl's Black Box Theatre Classroom for an application.
There is one technical theatre class offering that is taught by Mrs. Terl in conjunction with the above programming. All Parkway students have the opportunity to request the course at the end of the year when completing elective course selections. The Technical Theatre course requires a teacher recommendation and active participation on at least 2 student production crews throughout the year.
