STUDENT SUCCESSES I've already began discussions with the school's admin team to expand my team and have been approved for another hire! … I learned more about what support systems should be in place for those of us in this field... - High School Theatre Production Manager, California Today, I am working with the first event that the school is hosting, and sooooo much of what I needed to take care of (that no one else had any idea about!) had been covered in the course. My work in this course has fleshed out much of what was theoretical or imagined before. I have learned so much…I am well prepared to face the challenges that will arise in my theater. I have been able to learn whilst creating the environment that I will be applying it all to. - Theatre Teacher and ITS Troupe Director, North Carolina ...guess who is stepping in to help manage the auditorium?! ... I want to thank you again for the course as it has helped me prepare for the transition. We have traction for the district to reinvest into the facility. - Stage Crew Sponsor and Co-Producer, Teacher, Pennsylvania Going through this class has been an enlightening experience…my philosophy of theater operations has developed into a more realistic one… - High School Master Electrician and Technical Director, California I've been able to gain knowledge and awareness that will benefit our Learning Center going forward. It's also been enlightening hearing from the cohort as we shared challenges and triumphs…The lessons that have been most valuable to me are the ones regarding safety and CTE. - Acting and Dance teacher, Coordinator of Performing Arts Learning Center, Hawaii We have also discussed safety, which is a huge part of Tech Theater…The discussions and readings for this course have really validated how much value an arts and technical education can provide for our students. - Technical Director for Performing Arts Department, California |

Managing a high school theatre is a hybrid job, requiring knowledge in the three components of High School Theatre Management, encompassing: Technical theatre Education Business management Typically those hired to run a high school theatre come from a wide variety of backgrounds.
WHY IS HIGH SCHOOL THEATRE MANAGEMENT SO ESSENTIAL? There has been a movement across the country in which junior and senior high schools are being built or remodeled with a state-of-the-art theatre on campus, yet this is done without thought as to how they will be run after they are built. Once school administrations realize they need someone to manage their school theatre there are no systems in place, and high school theatre management becomes a hodgepodge of trial and error. School districts increasingly need highly qualified management to set up operating systems, create safety programs, maximize student learning, and determine building performance. Because of this trend, High School Theatre Management expertise is a growing necessity. Theatre Management differs from Stage Management (which is offered by many universities). Stage Management is the management of a specific play or event that comes into a theatre, whereas Theatre Management is the management of the theatre itself into which plays and events come. High School Theatre Management is fast becoming an essential specialty. Currently no known universities offer a course, certification or a degree in High School Theatre Management, which encompasses all the disciplines of tech theatre, education and business management – UNTIL NOW.
