Backstage Center Stage is back…in another new location! This year we’re partnering with the Paramount Center for the Arts and GREAT Theatre in St. Cloud, MN!

Join K-12/College/University theater educators, designers, and artists for an intensive workshop day combining hands-on training in technology and design skills and an opportunity to ask the experts about any of the challenging tech/design questions you might have. Deepen your tech/design toolbox with practical tools you can apply in your classroom and theater spaces. Be inspired by the latest equipment, technology, and expertise of the presenters. And of course, connect with other theater educators and directors as you strategize ways to address your tech/design needs!
