 Before the audience sees a show on a cruise ship, and before the running crew learn the show, and before the show is teched (usually on land, often in a warehouse), the show has to be designed – just as in a land-based theatre. But there are some differences between designing, installing, and programming land-based shows versus shows on cruise ships. Maybe this might be your calling? Don’t want to work on a cruise ship full time? Consider working for a cruise line as a designer, installer, or programmer! This article from Cruise Industry News features Visual Connection, one of the companies that provide entertainment lighting services for cruise lines. And while this article is primarily lighting-oriented (my favorite subject!), it applies to any aspect of technical theatre. The article addresses how it’s essential to understand all of the ship’s structures and systems, not just the theatre’s systems, the challenges of delivering and running a show on a cruise ship, and more.
