This project explores how a traditional theatrical production may be adapted for online streaming. A case study of a WPI theatre organization’s first streamed production is used to form considerations on how an individual theatre company can approach transitioning their own content to a digital platform. Recommendations identify the scope of film and streaming equipment required as well as necessary changes to individual theatrical departments. The conclusions of this paper provide a flexible framework for theatre companies to produce streamed content.
