Tech rehearsals are when everything in a musical theatre production finally comes together — and when performers are most at risk for injury. In this episode, Jenna Kantor, PT, DPT, and Dance PT Certified, discusses the most common injuries that arise during tech week — from overuse and sprains to back strain and vocal fatigue — and how physical therapists and PTAs can proactively support their performer clients through this demanding phase.
Whether you’re a student, new grad, or seasoned clinician, this episode will help you understand the physical and environmental factors that make tech week so challenging — and how to turn your clinical knowledge into actionable care strategies for the stage.
