Why Train in a Repertory Company Like the Hilberry?
The Hilberry Repertory Theatre Company was founded on the principle
that the most effective means of theatre training can be obtained
through the production of classic plays in a repertory system.
 Hilberry students are involved in over 120 performances of seven
different shows before an audience of nearly 45,000 people each
season.
The program is directed intensively toward production. Academic classes are required
for students, but the major learning experience is derived from the production of a
challenging repertory of plays before a live audience.
Repertory theatre training is demanding because everything is always in a state of
change: several shows are running, others are in rehearsal, and another is being cast.
There are no “stars” in the Hilberry Company. The troupe is made up of conscientious actors, designers, and managers of substantial ability who are dedicated to working as
an ensemble for the production of the season.
Graduate research assistantships are granted to all admitted members
of the Hilberry Company in the areas of acting, scenic design, costume
design, lighting design, stage management and theatre management.
