Question from my D: How many Smith theatre performances feature men? And how many Smithies go out to the other 4 colleges to perform in their theatre shows?
I’m not sure how it was in previous years, but this year it has definitely depended on what the show calls for - as well as on what organization is producing it.
Overall, three Smith theater productions so far this year have cast men, but that’s in large part because of the productions that have been put on - many of them either call for an all-female cast or have gender neutral parts.
And I’m not sure how many Smithies do other 5 college theater shows, sorry!
There are a number of men in the performances highlighted on the theater webpage.

I suggest calling the Five College Theater Program with your questions.

The Smith performances that I have attended were outstanding.
