The Division of Theatre produces seven fully staged productions each year directed by faculty and guest artists. This year’s season includes A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Hurt Village by Katori Hall, Lysistrata, The Yalemihkeinsploke a world premiere by Dylan Guerra, The Moors by Jen Silverman and Sender by Ike Holter

Graduate actors create several devised works during their three years including the Character Workshops and The Quartets.

Graduates can expect to be cast at least once at the Dallas Theatre Center during their time at SMU, though many are cast multiple times. All graduate students understudy major roles at DTC as well.

With the cooperation and guidance of SMU, our graduate students are often cast in productions at local theaters in the DFW area, including Stage West, Shakespeare Dallas and the award-winning Undermain Theater.
