Bachelor in Stage Management and Technical Theatre

The Bachelor in Stage Management and Technical Theatre at Trinity College Dublin is a 3-year degree for students who want to work in professional theatre, TV, and film. It offers practical training in sound, lighting, and construction, making it ideal for hands-on learners.

This program teaches core skills like production management, design, and managing a freelance business. Students learn about all technical departments in the first year, apply these skills in real productions in the second year, and do work placements with prominent theatre companies in the final year.

Graduates can become stage managers, lighting operators, or sound operators. They often work with theatre companies that tour nationally and internationally, or secure technical positions in film and TV. These skills can also lead to opportunities in the creative arts sector, such as theatre production manager or technical director.
