I have yet to discover another blog like this one that is devoted specifically to theatre technicians working on cruise ships, however I have come across some YouTube vloggers who have at least devoted one episode to the subject, and some are actually technicians on ships.   Kudos to them!!

Below are some I've come across so far.  I'm not officially endorsing any of these vloggers, I don't know them, however I thought their information was worth passing on to you! (In no particular order, just alphabetically by first name.)

Keep checking back, as I'll update this post as I find more...
Plus - please let me know if you find any you'd recommend!

Welcome to the CruiseTechies blog! 
Whether you’ve been on a cruise ship or not, you’ve likely seen adverts for all of the spectacular shows that they offer.  Which means…they have theatres.  Which means…those theatres need to be staffed by theatre technicians.  Which means… cruise lines are always on the lookout to hire good techies.  Which means... the cruise industry is a great career option for you!  You get to travel the world while doing a job you love!
