Technical Director
Scott Piddington
Scott has been helping students figure out how to design, implement, & run sets, lights, & sound here in the Gilford HS theatre for 43 years since the Spring of 1979. It’s kind of hard to believe. He is on the board of the New Hampshire Educational Theatre Guild (since ~88) and an NH representative to the New England Drama Council (since ~89). He is an avid hiker, backpacker, & backcountry XC skier. The crazy thing is that he is also a double-triple crown long distance thru-hiker having hiked the Appalachian Trail, Continental Divide Trail, & Pacific Crest Trail, all 3 twice. Yes, that’s over 17,000 miles. He is grateful to have been a part of the lives of so many phenomenal students on this stage.
