Amélie is about an extraordinary young woman who lives quietly in the world but loudly in her mind. She covertly improvises small but surprising acts of kindness that bring joy and mayhem. But when a chance at love comes her way, Amélie realizes that to find happiness she’ll have to risk everything and say what’s in her heart. Be inspired by this imaginative dreamer who finds her voice, discovers the power of connection, and sees possibility around every corner.

This course is an introduction to the basic components of set, scenic art, and lighting design for the theatre. The students will create scale models of the set of plays chosen by the instructor. Research on the theatre spaces, concepts of the visual movement of the characters throughout the story, and a conceptual evaluation of the scripts will be examined to create the designs.

This lecture/workshop trains students in the technical aspects of mounting theatre productions and events. Participants will learn stagecraft using equipment such as shop tools, lighting instruments, audio and video design as required.
