The theatre major is in the midst of its 50th year and we want to see you!
Join us on Saturday, April 18, 2026 for a complimentary reception to celebrate 50 years since our major was established and see all the incredible growth and change that’s happened in that time.
We’ll reconnect, reminisce, enjoy each other’s company and then take in our spring production: Sweeney Todd.
Reception begins at 6 pm
Curtain is 7:30 pm
About the show:
“Sweeney Todd has become a bloody, worldwide success since being awarded eight Tony's, (including Best Musical), for its Broadway premiere. Stephen Sondheim's and Hugh Wheeler's tasty, thrilling, theatrical treat has simultaneously shocked, awed and delighted audiences across the world.
An infamous tale, Sweeney Todd, an unjustly exiled barber, returns to nineteenth century London, seeking vengeance against the lecherous judge who framed him and ravaged his young wife. The road to revenge leads Todd to Mrs. Lovett, a resourceful proprietress of a failing pie shop, above which, he opens a new barber practice. Mrs. Lovett's luck sharply shifts when Todd's thirst for blood inspires the integration of an ingredient into her meat pies that has the people of London lining up... and the carnage has only just begun!"
