There is never a dull moment of summer at Vassar – genius SIG kids scurrying through the college center, Ford Scholars, URSI breakthroughs, Reunion, construction work. And Vassar & New York Stage and Film’s Powerhouse Theater. From singeingly convincing recreations of the Salem witch trials to magnificent musicals, the Powerhouse Theater has thrilled audiences for 28 seasons. And this summer, it is officially poised to do so again in its 29th season.
Since its inception in 1985, this VC-NYSF collaboration has been dedicated to assisting both emerging and established artists in the development and production of new works for theater and film. Having served thousands of artists and tens of thousands of audience members, this open-to-all opportunity continues to provide an exceptional chance to experience stunning premier works at unmatched rates.
Past seasons have supported the works of stars like the incomparable Meryl Streep ‘83 and the award-winning Chloe Sevigny. And this season, promising to live up to its reputation of world class, star-studded entertainment, it will feature works from the multiple-award-winning Steve Martin and legendary creator of In the Heights, Lin-Manuel Miranda. From June 21 to July 28, you will be treated to a spectrum of genres of theatrical delights you definitely do not want to miss.

And wherever you are, until we find each other again in the fall, have a fantastic summer! 🙂
