Welcome to the Technical Theatre Archive

Whether you're a seasoned stagehand, a student of design, or a curious enthusiast, this wiki is your backstage pass to the inner workings of live entertainment production. The Technical Theatre Archive is a curated, living resource dedicated to the tools, techniques, and traditions that bring performances to life—rigging to lighting, cue sheets to consoles, and everything in between.

Here, you'll find documentation, diagrams, real-world case studies, and hard-won lessons from theaters, theme parks, and touring productions. This isn’t just a database—it’s a collaborative space to preserve the knowledge that too often disappears once the house lights dim.

Pull back the curtain and dive in. The show’s just getting started.
