I have compiled the experiences of women in technical theater into timelines to represent the varying experiences we’ve had in the Galloway theater company. The timelines demonstrate the sexism we face, the circumstances we’ve overcome, and our accomplishments. The timelines are mixed together to showcase our stories are far too similar and that we experience many of the same experiences.
I found this project gratifying to complete as I ended my technical theater career at Galloway. It brought me immense joy to hear from the other females in tech love on tech. I left each interview beaming about the future of tech.
I would have loved to include experiences from other high schools, but my main focus is on creating change within the Galloway theater company. I hope the teachers seeing these experiences in an anonymous format will lead to positive, transformative change.
