Venue description

The Purdue Theatre program offers state-of-the-art equipment and facilities, but people remain at the heart of their artistic endeavors. Students are able to develop close, cooperative relationships with faculty and staff in a nurturing and challenging artistic environment. The study of theatre integrates the liberal arts into the creation of a shared theatrical event. Every play brings to the stage a collective of students and faculty toward the realization of dramatic works that shed light on their history, a means of sharing the present, and creating the future. Purdue Theatre faculty are professional artists who work at major theatrical venues throughout the world. They share their experience in the classroom, on the stage and one-on-one to prepare students for theatre professions, while encouraging them to be active contributors to the society in which they live and work.
