Experience Theatre at Fort Lewis College

At Fort Lewis College, theatre isn’t just studied—it’s lived. Students take part in every aspect of production: acting, directing, design, publicity, and technical theatre. Our hands-on, collaborative curriculum means you learn by doing.

We produce up to four MainStage shows each year, including student-led, dance, and devised works. Guest artists from Broadway and regional theatre bring professional insight to our stage.

Small class sizes mean personalized mentorship from expert faculty, and student organizations like Skyhawk Improv and our theatre and tech clubs foster creativity and community.

We are proudly inclusive, offering performance opportunities for the global majority and LGBTQIA+ students. Here, your voice matters and your artistry thrives.

"At FLC, I built lasting relationships with professors who became mentors and friends. I started stage management my first year—gaining real experience, confidence, and a head start in the industry."

Theatrical productions

Students gain real-world experience through up to four faculty-directed shows, senior productions, and class projects each year. The Theatre Hall features two performance spaces, a prop room, costume shop, and set-building facility—supporting every stage of creation.

The ensemble experience

Playwrights, directors, actors, designers, and technicians collaborate as an ensemble to bring stories to life. Students and professors work side by side, creating a professional yet supportive environment that mirrors the world of theatre beyond campus.
