Alan P. Symonds '69, former acting technical director of the Loeb Theatre, accepted a newly created position yesterday as technical director for all house and Yard theatrical productions.
"A variety of people requested that they need help with the technical side of the theater," he said. "Since [Symonds] had the experience, he was a logical candidate."
Symonds said yesterday he hopes to provide technical support for student productions in the houses and improve safety for students involved in theater.
"I see this as being a year in which we get some things done and establish in a more formal way what's needed," Symonds said. "There is a need for more support outside from the structure."
A national search for a permanent director had included Symonds as a candidate, but he was ruled out, Brustein said, because he lacks the academic credentials to teach a course, as required by the job.
