Musical Theatre Page

The Musical Theatre Program at Adrian College is a collaborative degree offered by the Music and Theatre Departments. Courses in Acting, Dance and Stage Design are offered by the Theatre Department, while Voice Lessons and Music Skills are taught by the Music Department. The college sponsors a full musical production each fall and a Scenes Workshop each spring. In addition to these productions, the Theatre Department offers several other opportunities for extensive stage experience. Please visit the Theatre Department calendar by clicking

The Musical Theatre degree focuses on the development of singing, acting and dancing. These components are combined in productions and during weekly studio class performances. Musical Theatre students perform a jury at the end of each semester demonstrating their individual growth in each of these areas. In their senior year, Musical Theatre students perform a "Senior Show" which they themselves design, stage, choreograph and perform.

In addition to college-sponsored productions, the Music Department also produces The Annual Broadway Revue. This show traditionally takes place in January and is designed and directed entirely by Adrian College students. For the past two years, over 40 students have been included in the cast of this very popular annual production. For more information on Broadway Revue, click

Students may also take advantage of the community productions at the Croswell Opera House and the Tecumseh Civic Auditorium. Each year these community theatres produce a handful of musicals and straight theatre productions. Casting calls are made to the college and community for all of their productions.
