Stagecraft - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Stagecraft (or Technical Theatre) is the art of building, attaching, and rigging scenery for theater and television as well as other technical aspects of performance including sound, costuming, makeup, and lighting. |
 | | At the full-time professional end of the spectrum, for example in modern Broadway and opera, stagecraft for a production may include hundreds of skilled carpenters, painters, electricians, stagehands, seamstresses, wigmakers, etc. In this form, modern stagecraft is a highly technical and specialized field, with many sub-disciplines and a vast trove of history and tradition. |
 | | The majority of stagecraft is practiced in an environment between these two extremes, with a dedicated crew of people of the various disciplines working together with the actors and directors to pull together a successful production. |
