Brief History
NMU does not offer a Master’s Degree in Theatre, so we have developed a highly successful Graduate Internship Program.  The strengths of this are: (1) hands-on training at an advanced level, (2) acquisition of new skills or strengthening of existing skills, (3) design opportunities in any tech area, (4) opportunities to direct, (5) fill any production position of your interest, and (6) financial support to stage, regional and national auditions.  Our productions are student run under faculty supervision.
