Illinois College TheatreWorks produces two shows and several student-directed shows each academic year. We have two theatres: Sibert Theatre, a 250-seat modified thrust theatre; and the Illinois College Experimental Blackbox Theatre or the ICEBOX. Committed to staging a variety of works including classics, new works, and musicals, we also experiment with a variety of theatrical styles, from realism to theatricalism.

Students play a vital role in the operation of TheatreWorks from staffing the box office, to house management, to publicity, to work on set and lights, to costume design and construction, to makeup artists. Paid student positions are available in many of these areas. Students also receive academic credit for production work.
