2026-2027 Season
Love and Weirdness: The 31st Annual First Show
October 8-10 | Hepburn Zoo Theatre
The First Show is a special production of the Middlebury Theatre Department – a chance for students who haven’t yet been on a Midd stage to take a shot at acting. This show is for those brave, bold souls who want to get up there and try something.
This “set list” of scenes focuses on Love – and the clunky baggage that inevitably accompanies it. Love is fickle. It’s weird. It’s the best. It drives every meaningful interaction we have in this life. So, let’s take a good look at it. MWUAH.
Directed by Meghan Leathers
Almost, Maine by John Cariani
October 29 - 31 | Seeler Studio Theatre
On a clear, moonless night in the middle of winter, all is not what it seems in the remote town of Almost, Maine. As the northern lights hover in the sky above, Almost’s residents find themselves falling in and out of love in unexpected and hilarious ways.
Directed by Alex Draper
Upcoming: Antigone by Sophocles, translation by David Mulroy
December 4 - 6 | Seeler Studio Theatre
Given the choice to follow the law of the state or her own sense of duty to her family, a young woman stands up and resists, even though she risks losing everything. This timely Greek tragedy explores justice, conscience, and what it means to live by one’s beliefs.
Directed by Michole Biancosino
Original choral compositions by Carol Christensen
