THE THEATERMAKERS EXPERIENCE:

- Classes & Mentorship from Industry Professionals: As a part of the Theatermakers program, you’ll study with professional working artists who are experts in their subject matter. Classes vary across the different focuses but include study in New Work, Voice, Choicework, Droznin Movement, Playwriting, Directing, and more. Plus, with so many people on campus for the O’Neill’s other summer programming, you’ll have the opportunity to meet and converse with artists from all disciplines and backgrounds.

- Weekly Performances of New Work: Original pieces come to life each week written, directed, and performed by your Theatermakers ensemble. Throughout the semester, you will create around different themes and in various styles such as musicals and radio plays. Your new work is presented to the campus community of artists, arts administrators, and faculty as well as the public.

- Professional Observerships: As a member of the Theatermakers ensemble, you’ll get firsthand insight into the new work development process as you observe the professional artists in rehearsals for the pieces that are a part of the O’Neill summer season.

- Theater Attendance: While you’re on campus, you’ll see every piece of work that is being developed as a part of the National Puppetry Conference, National Playwrights Conference, and National Music Theater Conference. If the schedule allows, you may also take a trip to see a performance off campus.
