For many years, the Wabash Theater Department has brought innovative, creative, and daring scripts to life. Three mainstage productions are produced each season in the months of October, February, and April, with student-directed Studio One-Acts produced in November. Whether you’re a first-time performer or are already on your way to an EGOT, the Wabash Theater invites everyone to participate in its upcoming productions. These public performances are not for Theater majors only; auditions are open to all students and members of the Wabash community, including faculty, staff, spouses, and partners. No experience required! Visit the Box Office page for free tickets to these and other events.
