Mainstage

Trojan Center Performing Arts Theatre*
This intimate 300 seat proscenium theatre located in the Trojan Center, was modeled after the Terrace Theatre in the Kennedy Center inWashington The severe rake of the house, along with the baffled walls and extended apron, make the acoustics and sightlines in this venue superb. The Adams Center Theatre has seen the premieres of several regionally and nationally acclaimed productions including The Importance of Being Earnest, Master Harold…and the Boys, The Memorandum, Brighton Beach Memoirs, A Midsummer Night's Dream (1998), and Antigone (2003).

Claudia Crosby Theatre *
The Claudia Crosby Theatre was created by a special endowment of local arts patroness Mrs. Claudia Crosby, who wished to make a gift to the performing arts, particularly the theatre. Her generosity made possible the renovation of the former Smith Hall Auditorium, including the refurbishment of the house and lobby areas as well as the installation of state-of-the-art lighting and sound systems. With a seating capacity of 750+, the Crosby Theatre is located in Smith Hall. The Spring 2000 production of A Chorus Line was the premiere production in the Crosby Theatre.
