Interested in creating a 1930s classroom, or an old-west saloon? Our scene shop will give you all the tools you need to transport the audience to a new world. Located behind The Playhouse, our scene shop is a convenient and safe space for you to learn your craft. Our professors will teach you how to use the shop's power tools and other equipment to construct all kinds of scenery out of wood, Styrofoam and steel.
