The Tech Workshop is for anyone ages 13-19 with an interest in art, performance, lighting, leadership, sound effects, building, or just plain fun. Participants will learn about, and participate in, all aspects of producing a play, from designing sets, lighting, props, and sounds, to building and painting scenery, creating and sourcing props, and finally to working on stage and with actors and directors to rehearse and run the play. 

Students are expected to participate in strike on Sunday August 4th.

Zena Gurbo is an artist, mother and instructor who has worked with students of all ages for over 25 years. Zena is excited to help the Tech kids design and create the set, to work on lighting and sound and especially looking forward to prop making. This will be her first time working on Shakespeare in the Valley but she has been a fan for as long as she has been driving her kids there every summer for quite a while now.

Scholarships are available: Please don’t hesitate to apply if you need it. Scholarship forms are available here.
