Musical Theatre Past Performances

The Department of Musical Theatre performs multiple fully-staged productions each year – two on campus in collaboration with University Productions and one presented in collaboration with professional regional theatre organizations. These performances are of the highest caliber, joining the work of expert faculty and student artists in stage performance and directing, costuming, pit orchestra, design & production management.

Below is a list of the musical theatre productions that have been previously performed at the School of Music, Theatre & Dance.
