Cultivating Artists.
One Stage at a Time.

Emerson Stage

At Emerson Stage in Emerson College’s Department of Performing Arts, the next generation of theatre actors, designers, stage managers, technicians, administrators, and educators work alongside distinguished faculty, professional staff, and visiting artists to bring skills learned in the classroom to vibrant life on stage.

Emerson Stage functions as a student-led production company, allowing upcoming theatre artists to gain real-life experience. Each academic year, productions are produced in a variety of theatre spaces across campus: the Cutler Majestic Theatre, the Greene Theater, the Semel Theater, Jackie Liebergott Black Box Theatre, and the Robert J. Orchard Stage in the Paramount Center.
Learn more about these performance venues.
