GVSU theatre students hone their skills in all aspects of theatre production. Our Performance Studio (P.S.) Series productions are fully staged performances directed, designed, produced, and performed by Grand Valley students.

Each year, we produce one full-length, two one-act, or multiple ten-minute plays based on student interest and experience. The 2027 productions will be announced in Fall 2026.

Each year, Theatre at Grand Valley presents a touring production designed for pre-college audiences. On alternating years we present Bard to Go as part of our Shakespeare Festival, or a Theatre for Young Audiences (TYA) production.

This year, we are delighted to bring Bard to Go: Excellent Falsehood to area high schools. For more information on bringing Bard to Go to your school, contact James Bell at [email protected]
