TREE: TECHNICAL REHEARSAL, EDUCATION, & EXPERIENCE

TREE has a mission to provide a comprehensive and unique technical theater experience for interested students in grades 6-12. 

By the end of the 4-week program, campers will have functioning knowledge of several disciplines of technical theater and be responsible for running tech for CDT's two mainstage productions.

The beautiful Round Lake Auditorium employs a full array of technical equipment to produce a season of dynamic programming. From 30-person master classes to full-house performances, TREE campers will learn techniques for audio design, lighting, properties, and more for any kind of event they may encounter as technical theater personnel.
