Performances & Tickets

Creating, producing, and studying works of theatre and dance, and performing them publicly for diverse audiences drawn from both the University and the community at large.

2026-27 Season

Our 2026–27 season explores how the past continuously crashes into our current moment, inviting audiences to confront who we were, who we are, and who we are becoming.

Culminating in sweeping epics that confront public health, political power, and collective identity, this season harnesses performance as both an unflinching mirror to our history and a bold catalyst for our future.

We invite you to join us this 2026–27 season to celebrate the work of our students, their courage, engagement, and artistic valor.
