Harvey Hall Theatre

鈥淲e recognize not all students are artistically inclined,鈥 said Assistant Professor of Theatre Jennifer Sansfacon. 鈥淏ut theatre gives everyone a chance to think outside the box, to approach tasks in new ways. We鈥檙e all about experiential learning.鈥

Students from the Spring 2019 production of Steve Martin 黑料社区. 鈥淧icasso at the Lapin Agile鈥 give a sense of what University Theatre is like and what it means to them. Lois Cassell, a Psychology major, joined theatre on a whim.

鈥淚've always been an admirer of the arts but never had the money in high school to be involved in theatre," Cassell said. "So, once I got to college, I snatched up the opportunity to be a part of it for free! Even though I'm not a theatre major or minor, the theatre has become a second home for me. I love the stage. I love the process. It's almost cleansing and extremely cathartic. I get to be a part of something bigger than myself and contribute to a work of art.鈥
