Abstract
In February 2024 Sewanee Theatre and Dance produced Tennessee Williams’ A Streetcar Named Desire. This thesis documents the role of the technical director from pre-production through closing. 3D Printing technology was used for this production to create scenery that evoked the imagery of 1940s New Orleans. This thesis also discusses the roles of a technical director and the challenges they face in the industry. A portion of this project was done remotely which provides a unique perspective of the role of a Technical Director.
