Recent Productions

Each year, the Theatre Department produces four productions directed by both faculty and students, with a wide range of dramatic repertory, including classical plays, contemporary drama, devised pieces, original works and a broad range of other theatrical genres. The works are produced in multiple spaces and venues, along with smaller-scale activities such as student driven performances and cabarets, workshops, interdepartmental collaboration, readings of original plays, and workshops with visiting artists.
