Nebraska Wesleyan University

At Nebraska Wesleyan, the stage is your laboratory. You’ll learn more at NWU because you’ll experience every aspect of life in theatre. NWU Theatre produces 40+ shows running on 200 nights each year. Compare that to the production schedules at other schools. NWU faculty direct as many as 14 productions each year, including three to four musicals, Shakespeare and classic to modern dramas. And NWU students direct, write and produce an additional 20 or more plays annually. Get onstage sooner. All these opportunities mean you’ll perform during your first year. And you’ll hone more skills. Design costumes. Build sets. Learn makeup and lighting and directing and choreography. Be part of something big. Our experience-based approach draws 100 theatre majors from coast to coast. NWU Theatre is one of the largest and most diverse departments on campus. When it comes to building your experience on and off the stage, NWU Theatre outperforms everyone.
