INTRO WORKSHOP TO THEATRE SOUND & LIGHT

Light the Stage. Run the Sound. Make the Magic. The actors are frozen in the dark. The audience is holding its breath. Nothing happens until someone — at a board, in the shadows — presses GO. This workshop puts you in that seat. In four hours, you'll go from "I've never touched this stuff" to running light and sound cues on a real stage. You'll paint a sunrise with a fader. You'll drop a thunderclap at the exact right second. You'll feel the small, electric thrill of a stage manager whispering "Standby... GO" — and knowing the next moment belongs to you. No experience. No jargon. No pressure. Just real equipment, a live scene to cue, and people who'll teach you the way they wish someone had taught them. And here's the real invitation: Leela's next production needs a crew. Learn today, and by fall you could be the one making the magic behind an actual show — opening night, headset on, house lights down. Everyone's welcome — and if you've been looking for your doorway into Austin's Indian theatre community, this is it. Walk in a beginner. Walk out crew. This project is supported in part by the City of Austin Arts, Culture, Music and Entertainment. About the Faciltator: Vijay Sankaran
