Indiana University's Midsummer Theatre Program is a dynamic two-week immersive theatre and drama institute designed especially for young people serious about studying theatre. Classes are taught by IU faculty, outstanding teaching assistants, and guest artists. Together, students and theatre professionals share the common endeavor of building an intensive ensemble.

Over the years, the Midsummer Theatre Program has enjoyed tremendous success. We accept dedicated students from around the country for challenging and rewarding theatrical training. Our students develop their talents while gaining exposure to one of the richest cultural landscapes in the country. Students who have completed their freshman year of high school are eligible for the program.
