Series 1: Ep 2: What's it like being a school theatre technician?
Description
In the second episode of 'Half Hour Call' Holly Barradell (currently an Extended member of SLT, Drama teacher with a specialism in Technical Theatre and Champion for Open Drama UK South East) interviews Chris Tindall about his role as a school Technical Theatre Manager. This episode talks about the processes of being a technician, how students learn through failure in the live aspects of making theatre, how you can pitch more strategically for a theatre technician of your own and how to purchase equipment and resources that will support your technical theatre offer. Chris suggests equipment that won't blow a Drama department budget and answers guest questions with clarity and generous offers of support.
"...if you're a technician in a school environment - making you, your skills and your equipment available to whomever needs it." Chris Tindall.
