Celebrating nearly 60 years of community theatre!
The Kent Trumbull Theatre produces many shows and performances that generate rave reviews from local critics and the general public. Theatre students usually perform the shows, but sometimes include outside talent as the theatre presents three productions annually throughout the university season (September-May) and three more as part of the Summer Stock program (May-August), which includes an active youth theatre component. Students can complete their Bachelor of Arts degree in Theatre Studies at Ken State Trumbull.
