O'Neill' Theater Center's Groundbreaking Ceremony Set 11/13
The Eugene O'Neill Theater Center marks the historic expansion of its Waterford, CT theater campus with a groundbreaking ceremony Wednesday, November 13 at 11am, rain or shine. Members of the community are invited to join and celebrate the occasion, which marks a substantial artistic and capital expansion for the two time Tony Award-winning organization.
The expansion, the largest in the Center's history, includes seven new dormitory cottages accommodating living space for 65 artists and faculty, a laundry facility, a new rehearsal hall, and the renovation of existing buildings into additional production and rehearsal space.
The National Theater Institute, founded in 1970, is proud to offer the National Music Theater Institute Semester (NMTI), a sister program to the successful National Theater Institute Semester (NTI) program. NMTI will offer credit-earning intensive training in all areas of musical theater-acting, singing, directing, writing, dance, composition, choreography-to undergraduates from the U.S. and abroad. Construction is scheduled to be completed in conjunction with enrollment of the NMTI Fall 2014 class.
A short presentation will be held following the groundbreaking ceremony at the Rose Theater Barn. Details and timeline of the expansion will be shared, as well as the new program's profound impact on the O'Neill's mission-to discover, develop, and nurture new work and new artists.
