What is tech week?
Tech week is the last week before the show opens. It is the time when the light, stage and sound crews are added to the production, as well as costumes, make-up and props. All rehearsals this week are mandatory, and they can run as late as 9:00 p.m., depending on how much time is needed to get the show ready for opening. Thursday night is the final dress rehearsal.
Tech Week is generally the week before a show opens and will involve rehearsals that run later into the evening. During this time, we will move into the performance space/theater and adjust spacing if needed, as well as get used to lighting and sound.
