Northwestern University has a long tradition of Pulitzer, Emmy, Golden Globe and Tony Award winning alumni lighting up stage and screen. One likely reason is the Waa Mu Show, Northwestern's oldest theatrical tradition.
The co-chairs of Northwestern University's 90th annual Waa-Mu Show have announced the title and theme for its upcoming production. “The Secret of Camp Elliott,” a supernatural mystery musical following three friends at summer camp in 1977. The production will be filmed and available for streaming June 9-20.
Beginning Jan. 16, a diverse cast of Northwestern University students and alumni will present Imagine U episodes created for “Saturday Morning Live! at The National Theatre.” Exploring the theme of “Life Now,” the episodes feature stories, songs, movement and crafts created to help families cope with the challenges of life during the pandemic.
Some stories never run out of magic. The importance of family and friendships are at the center of Northwestern University's 2019-2020 ImagineU season which features the timeless adventures of a bear and his friends and a classic father-daughter fairytale. This family series presents stories that touch the heart.
