You learn the latest techniques in lighting design and are able to transform day into night. Sound is a crucial element of the magic. Learn to create real-world noises on state-of-the-art equipment.

Butler also offers training in design, costumes and makeup. By understanding the technical ins and outs of stagecraft, you are able to make scripts come alive and help characters become three-dimensional. Innovative theatre practitioners guide you in all elements of production.
