DHS Theater Students Attend Thespian Conference

Image
On September 8, 2018, some Dayton High Theatre students attended the Nevada Thespian Technical Theatre Conference at Spanish Springs High School. This yearly conference teaches and reinforces vital tech skills like working with props, lighting, sound, costumes, and rigging. They also attended workshops to learn about scene painting and publicity for shows. The students had so much fun and learned skills and techniques to bring back to the rest of the theatre students and Drama Club!
