About the Little Theatre

All CMU Theatre Arts Department productions are held in The Little Theatre, a 219 seatThe Little Theatre proscenium house equipped with classroom, makeup and dressing room facilities, computerized lighting equipment, and scene shop facilities.

The CMU Little Theatre was built in 1969 and was formally dedicated on September 6, 1969. Dr. and Mrs. John A. Epple made this addition to campus possible by a generous gift. Since then the Little Theatre has been a vital part of campus life and culture.

The Department produces four main stage productions per year, including student directed one-act plays every two years. In addition to our regular theatre season, The Little Theatre, the Cultural Affairs Committee, and the Student Government Association present as many as four cultural events annually, which provides additional participation opportunities.

Furthermore, the department contracts with professional actors from New York or Los Angeles as part of our guest-artist program.
