Welcome to the Juilliard Drama Division’s 50th anniversary season.In the theater, we make things together we could never make by ourselves. All through this 50th anniversary year we will all come together—actors, writers, directors, teachers, staff, alumni, patrons, families, friends—in celebration, in remembrance, and in gratitude. We will look back and look ahead as we rededicate ourselves and begin to chart a course for the next 50 years.
Our art is about the enactment of change. It is easier to enact change than live it. That is true for individuals and for institutions. The Drama Division is changing. It should. It must. But as we change we have to have the discernment to see and the tenacity to hold fast to the best principles that have made us who we are. We in the Drama Division hold fast to our dedication to craft and our dedication to telling the story of what it’s like to be a human being. We believe you can’t do the latter without the former.
Fifty years is not very long if we measure in years. But measured in accumulated experience—the journeys, the discoveries, the revelations, the heartbreak, the faith, the joy—these 50 years are almost infinite in the amount of lived life. Yet, so much lies ahead. There are stories not yet told, voices not yet heard on our stages. That is the work of the next 50 years and that work starts now.
Some of us will be here for the 100th anniversary. Some of us will not. But we will all be making something together we could not make by ourselves. By teaching, learning, and performing, we are all part of this great legacy of craft and humanity.
Welcome to our 50th year. Let us celebrate together.

Peter West was a master lighting designer. He brought light to our worlds physically and metaphorically. Through his collaborative spirit, sensitivity, talent, and humor, Peter profoundly shaped the Fourth Year Repertory. We dedicate this season to our beloved friend and colleague. These productions use the Artist Engagement Services of the University Resident Theatre Association, Inc.
The Drama Division’s 2017–18 season is supported in part by a generous grant from The Fan Fox and Leslie R. Samuels Foundation.
