The annual publication of Encore is one of the few times that I get a chance to look back and celebrate the many and varied accomplishments of our students, staff, faculty, and alumni. I hope that you too enjoy this review of our past year. The breadth and depth of our season once again served our ambitious artistic and educational goals by enabling over 300 students to participate in the making of theatre and audiences numbering over 7000 to attend our shows. Our commitment to new works was realized through a theatre-in-the-round experience set up on the Thurber stage for an evening of three short plays. Our second year graduate ensemble production of Wild Stages: Kabarett MFA! was a successful building block in our three-year curricular focus on performer generated new work and community outreach.
