The Marist Theatre Guild (previously MCCTA) is the university鈥檚 student-run theatre organization and it is one of the oldest, largest, and most active clubs on campus. The Guild provides students with opportunities to participate in all aspects of theatrical production, regardless of major or prior experience. The Guild produces six shows each year, including four fully student-run productions and two professional collaborations with the academic Theatre Program. The Guild opens 20+ positions in each of its six productions all fulfilled by students, including Director, Stage Manager, Production Manager, a plethora of Designer positions and so much more. There are plenty of ways to get involved whether you鈥檙e onstage, behind the scenes or both! Through these productions, students can develop skills in acting, directing, design, management, and other areas of theatre while collaborating with peers from across the University.
