Curtain Club
Spotlight on Theatre
Concordia University’s Curtain Club is a group for students interested in the dramatic arts. Members of the club are involved in various campus productions, including the two yearly major productions, Readers Theatre and One Act Plays. Curtain Club also assists with Gathering of the Talents and other drama-related activities on campus.
Curtain Club members have the opportunity to become members of a selective theatre honor society, Alpha Psi Omega, the oldest drama society in the United States. Alpha Psi Omega, the National Theatre Honorary Society, recognizes students for excellence in theatre performance and production and encourages their future leadership. Points earned through acting, directing and technical work make students eligible for membership. Concordia’s chapter, Omega Lambda, has had production photos published in Alpha Psi Omega’s publication, Playbill, for the last 21 years. New members are initiated every spring.
Students interested in joining Curtain Club may sign up at the interest meeting held at the beginning of the school year or contact a club member. Curtain Club, sponsored by Dr. Mira Wiegmann, has more than 115 members who have expressed an interest in theatre on its mailing list.
