Each year, Elmhurst theatre faculty and students collaborate on a full season of musicals, plays, student-directing projects, and children’s theatre. Mill performances ask probing questions, offer new ways to see the world, and showcase a variety of genres and playwrights.

All productions take place in the University’s intimate Mill Theatre, a converted sawmill that has housed Elmhurst’s theatre program since 1969. At the Mill, Elmhurst theatre, musical theatre and theatre education majors work alongside biology majors, English majors and more. All student performers and technicians tackle a variety of acting, technical and leadership challenges.
