Production Schedule

Tisch Drama is a community devoted to creation and collaboration. Our degree program combines rigorous conservatory training across ten professional training studios with a robust academic curriculum in Theatre Studies. Through the dynamic production process, students have the opportunity to synthesize critical thinking and practical training in the context of performance. 

This production schedule marks the TISCH DRAMA STAGE current season — celebrating the department's 50th Anniversary year. Watch for the lineup of fall 2024 Studio and Student Works productions. The three programs offer a glimpse into the rich creative works presented by the Tisch Drama Community.
