Production Season

Our 2012-13 Shows

We're happy to bring you an exciting bill of plays...all written in the last 25 years! Our shows are produced in two different ways. Mainstage productions show our students how theatre is produced at a small regional theatre,  while the secondstage productions model the operations of a small storefront theatre – with limited budgets and maximum creativity, allowing beginning student directors and designers to keep focus on the text and performers.

For tickets, purchase online or contact the Miami Box Office 513-529-3200.
