A week after Hair, I had to turn around and get ready for a new production. The whole week of Monday, November 12 was tech week and then (on Friday and Saturday) productions of our schools play Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead. I wasn't actually in this production, but I was on the tech crew. I was head of the light/sound team (consisting of my sister and me), and I designed, programmed and ran lights, while she did the same for sound. It was my first time designing and programming lights, which was very exciting, but I had had a lot of previous experience running lights and sound for a show. It was a fun job, especially since it was a school play and I got to hang out with all my friends during and after, even though I never really understood the plot.
I think that this week demonstrates Creativity and Learning Outcome 5: Demonstrate the skills and recognize the benefits of working collaboratively. Whenever I had run lights and sound in the past, I had had to to both at the same time. I learned from this experience that having someone else doing half of it makes the whole job go a lot smoother and better.
