About

Theatre

Your support helps WMU theatre students gain hands-on experience that prepares them for careers across the performing arts industry. Through mainstage productions, conservatory-style training and mentorship from experienced faculty, students develop the artistic, technical and leadership skills needed to succeed on stage and behind the scenes.

Donor support strengthens Experience Driven Learning opportunities, from production resources and training to professional development and industry connections. By investing in the Department of Theatre, you help ensure students graduate with the practical experience, creative confidence and professional network needed to thrive in theatre, film, television and beyond.

Theatre Department

A gift to the theatre department provides unrestricted funding for the most urgent priorities within the program. This fund allows the college to respond quickly to opportunities that directly enhance student learning, professional development and creative exploration.

Theatre Guild

The University Theatre Guild is a community of people from Kalamazoo to Colorado, and Portage to New York City, who value educational theatre and choose to nurture its growth at Western Michigan University. Contributing to the University Theatre Guild is an excellent way to show your love for the theatre and invest in the education of talented young theatre artists. Your tax-deductible gift will enrich the educational experience of theatre students and help pave the way to success in their chosen field.
