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).

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.
