Greater Cincinnati Technical Theatre Guild

Greater Cincinnati Technical Theatre Guild is a group for those involved in theatre and looking to continually improve the technical quality of productions.

We look to provide technical support for each other as well as for non-professional theatres in the Greater Cincinnati area. Periodically, the group will look to provide technical workshops for those interested in starting in or learning more about technical theatre. Our initial focus is in lighting and sound, but we look to expand to other technical areas as our membership grows.

Their next meeting is Jan. 20. Details will be available early next week on their blog.
