Our Vision

For over 30 years, the theatre department at Concordia University Ann Arbor has held the reputation of positively impacting the community through the stage. Our Black Box Theatre has hosted over 65 productions and continues with a full season of excellent performances. We also provide academic theatre classes to enhance students’ education. Join our newest generation of artists on stage and beyond.

Performance

Our Mainstage Productions are given full technical support with scenery, lighting, costumes, sound, and orchestra. Our academic year begins with a fall play and ends with a spring musical. Auditions are held at the beginning and end of the fall semester. Rehearsals are held Monday through Thursday evenings and work around students' busy schedules.

Our Student Series Productions provide opportunities for student leadership and are held throughout the year varying from one-acts, scenes, radio shows, cabaret, theatre ministry, and children's theatre.

Each December, students, faculty, staff, and community members come together for the Boar’s Head Festival, to enact medieval Christmas traditions and the story of Christ's birth in a moving spectacle.

Involvement in theatre at Concordia is encouraged for students of all disciplines, not just those pursuing a minor in theatre. Opportunities for participation are available in performing, assistant directing, stage management, and crafting behind the scenes.
